Respuesta :

The radius of the cone is 6 inches, which i mentioned in option D, for the volume of a cone is 168[tex]\pi[/tex] inches and its altitude is 14 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given is.

         Volume of the cone is 168[tex]\pi[/tex]

         Altitude of the cone is 14 inches

Step:1

         Formula for Volume of cone is,

                     [tex]V = \pi r^{2} \frac{h}{3}[/tex]....................................(1)

         Where,

                    V = 168 [tex]\pi[/tex] cubic inches

                      h = 14 inches

Step:2

          From the Eqn (1),

                     168[tex]\pi[/tex] = [tex]\pi r^{2} \frac{14}{3}[/tex]                 (∵ Cancel  [tex]\pi[/tex] on both sides)

                        168 = [tex]r^{2} \frac{14}{3}[/tex]

                  168 × 3 = [tex]r^{2} 14[/tex]

                       504 = [tex]r^{2} 14[/tex]

                           [tex]r^{2}[/tex] = 36

                             r = [tex]\sqrt{36}[/tex]

                            r = 6 inches

Result:

      Thus the radius of the cone is 6 inches, If the volume of a cone is 168 pi inches and its altitude is 14 inches.
