Answer:

d=8.0 meters

Explanation:

The volume of a cone is given by

V = 1/3 pi r^2 h

We are given the volume and the height

117.23 and the height 7

117.23 = 1/3 *3.14 *r^2 * 7

117.23 = 7.3266666666 *r^2

Divide each side by 7.3266666666

117.23/7.3266666666 = 7.3266666666 *r^2/7.3266666666

16.00045496 = r^2

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(16.00045496) =sqrt( r^2)

4.000 = r

We found the radius but it wants the diameter

d = 2*r

d =2*4.0

d=8.0 meters
