Katie is buying a refrigerator for her apartment. She's choosing between a regular fridge and a gigantic fridge . She notices that the gigantic fridge costs 3 times as much as the regular fridge. How many times as great is the volume of the gigantic fridge as the volume of the regular fridge?

Volume of the gigantic fridge is 2.5 times the volume of regular fridge.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is incomplete; here is the complete question.

Katie is buying a refrigerator for her apartment. She's choosing between a regular fridge and a gigantic fridge (details are shown in the table below). She notices that the gigantic fridge costs 3 times as much as the regular fridge.

How many times as great is the volume of the gigantic fridge as the volume of the regular fridge?  

Area of the base, Height, Price

Regular Fridge: 1m² / 2m / $200

Large Fridge: 2m² / m / $600

In this question cost of the large fridge is 3 times as much as the regular fridge.

Area of the base of regular fridge = 1m²

Height of the regular fridge = 2m

So volume of this fridge = 1×2 = 2m³

Area of the base of the large fridge = 2m²

Height of the large fridge = m

Volume of the large fridge = = 5m³

Ratio of the volumes of the large and regular fridge =

Therefore, volume of the gigantic fridge is 2.5 times the volume of regular fridge.

step-by-step explanation:

answer: ratio of volume of cone (with 3 times the height and equal diameter) to volume of cylinder is 2 to 1. the value of π is not used.

step-by-step explanation:

radius is diameter/2 = 4.

area of circle is π r^2.

volume of cylinder is height × area of base = hπr^2 = 3(4^2) π = 48π cubic inches.

not knowing the formula for volume of cone, i calculate it using calculus (which is for calculating things).

volume of cone is integral 0 to h area(y) dy. area(y) is π r(y)^2. r(y) runs r to zero as y runs zero to h, r(0) = r, r(h) = 0.

r(y) = r - r/h y

area(y) = π (r - r/h y)^2 = π (r^2 - 2r^2y/h + r^2y^2/h^2) = π r^2(1-2y/h+y^2/h^2)

antiderivative area(y) = π r^2 (y-y^2/h+y^3/(3h^2))

integral 0 to h = π r^2(h-h^2/h+h^3/(3h^2) - (0)) = π r^2(h - h + h/3) = π r^2(h/3) = π/3 r^2 h

volume of this cone is π/3(4^2)18 cubic inches.

= 6 16 π = 96π cubic inches.

cone has twice the volume, 96/48.

cone height is 6 times the cylinder.

ratio of volume formula: π r^2 cancels.

cone over cylinder ratio is 6h/3 to h, 2 to 1.
