The correct answer is option a.)
.
The formula for the volume
of a cone is given by
, where \(r\) is the radius of the base and
is the height. In this case, the height
is twice the radius
, so
.
Substitute
into the volume formula:
![\[V = (1)/(3) \pi r^2 (2x)\]](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/mathematics/middle-school/ctxkhtyxercwsux4n6qlswnzwqtqi937jn.png)
Simplify further:
![\[V = (2)/(3) \pi x^3\]](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/mathematics/middle-school/z5opk7jyi6yk12o64prtu364na79ondelw.png)
Thus, the expression representing the volume of the cone is \(\frac{2}{3} \pi x^3\).
Therefore, the correct answer is:
a.
![\((2)/(3) \pi x^3\)](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/mathematics/middle-school/aibpc83uqxywgmpq50b39v8hmr83m510fn.png)
This expression accurately represents the volume of the cone in cubic units.
