Questions

Answer 1

:Volume of can of chicken noodle soup=50.24inch^3

:Height of can of tomato soup=2.56inches

Explanation:

CHICKEN NOODLE SOUP :height=4inches

:radius=2inches

[ V=πr2h]

V=(3.14×2×2×4)=50.14

Now, Volume is same of both the can.

Volume of can of tomato soup=50.24;radius=2.5inches;

Height of can of tomato soup,

50.24=(3.14×2.5×2.5×h)

50.24=19.625h

h=50.24/19.625

=2.56inches

Answer 2

The height of the tomato soup can is 2.6 in.

Explanation:

"The can of chicken noodle soup has a height of 4 inches and a radius of 2 inches."

We can find the volume of this can.

V = pi r² h

V = 3.14 * (2 in.)² * (4 in.)

V = 50.24 in.³

"The can of tomato soup has the same volume, but a radius of 2.5 inches."

Now we know the volume of the can, so we can find the height, h.

V = pi r² h

50.24 in.³ = 3.14 * (2.5 in.)² * h

50.24 in.³ = 19.625 in.² * h

h = (50.24 in.³)/(19.625 in.²)

h = 2.56 in.

Answer: The height of the tomato soup can is 2.6 in.
