The volume of a cylinder varies jointly with the base (area) and the height. The volume is 40 inches^3 when the base (area) is 6 inches^2 and the height is 20 inches. Find the volume of the cylinder (after finding the variation constant) when the base (area) is 8 inches^2 and the height is 12 inches.

 K = ¹/₃, V = 32in³

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of s cylinder (V) = πr²h where πr² is the base area.

Now from the question,

V ∞ πr²h

V = kπr²h where k is the constant of proportionality which is also the variation constant.

40 = 6 x 20 x k

40 = 120k and

k   = ⁴⁰/₁₂₀

     = ¹/₃.

Now to find the volume when base area is 8in² and h is 12,

V = 8 x 12 x ¹/₃

V = 32in³

d. millimeters per hour.

step-by-step explanation:

we are given that,

carlo used a rain gauge to measure the amount of water his lawn is receiving from the sprinklers.

since, according to the options, we see that,

water cannot be measured by 'miles per hour', 'meters per second' and 'grams per seconds'.

we get that, the water can be measured by 'millimeters per hour'.

hence, the appropriate rate for describing the amount of water is 'millimeters per hour'.
