Question:

Jackson buys a grape snow cone on a hot day. By the time he eats all the "snow" off the top, the paper cone is filled with 27\pi27π27, pi cm^3 3 start superscript, 3, end superscript of melted purple liquid. The radius of the cone is 333 cm. What is the height of the cone?

Answer:

The height of the cone is
9 \ cm

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that the radius of the cone is
3 \ cm

The volume of the cone is
27\pi

The height of the cone can be determine using the formula,


$V=(1)/(3) \pi r^(2) h$

Substituting the values
V=27 \pi and
r=3, we get,


$27 \pi=(1)/(3) \pi(3)^(2) h$

Multiplying both sides by 3, we have,


$81 \pi= 9\pi h$

Dividing both sides by
$9 \pi$, we have,


9=h

Thus, the height of the cone is
9 \ cm
