N a water treatment plant, water passes through a cone-shaped filter with a height of 4 m and a diameter of 9 m. The water flows from the filter into a cylinder below it. One full cone-shaped filter fills one-fifth of the cylinder.

What are the dimensions of the cylinder? Use 3.14 to approximate pi.

A. h = 3 m; r = 3 m

B. h = 4.23 m; r = 5 m

C. h = 15 m; r = 6 m

D. h = 33.75 m; r = 2 m

    Given:

    Cone-shaped filter: height = 4m; diameter = 9m

    cylinder: one full cone-shape filter fills 1/5 of the cylinder

    volume of the cone = π r² h/3 = 3.14 * (4.5m) ² * 4m/3

    V = 3.14 * 20.25m² * 1.33m

    V = 84.57 m³

    84.57 m³ : 1/5 = 84.57 m³ * 5 = 422.85 m³ volume of the cylinder

    Volume of cylinder = π r² h

    Choice A: V = 3.14 * (3m) ² * 3m = 3.14 * 9m² * 3m = 84.78 m³

    Choice B: V = 3.14 * (5m) ² * 4.23m = 3.14 * 25m² * 4.23m = 332.10 m³

    Choice C: V = 3.14 * (6m) ² * 15m = 3.14 * 36m² * 15m = 1695.60 m³

    Choice D: V = 3.14 * (2m) ² * 33.75 m = 3.14 * 4m² * 33.75m = 423.90 m³

    The closest answer is Choice D. height = 33.75 m; radius = 2 m
