V= 1/3π*r^2*h
⇒ 142 cm^(2)= 1/3π*r^(2)*(8.5 cm)
⇒ ...
⇒ r= 3.994.

Rounded to the nearest centimeter, the final answer is 4 cm.

Hope this helps~

The radius to the nearest centimeter of the paper cup is 4cm.

Given that

  • The volume of the cone-shaped paper cup is 142 cubic centimeters.
  • The height is 8.5 centimeters.
  • Here v denotes the volume, r denotes the radius, h denotes the height.

Based on the above information, the following formula should be used.

[tex]V=\frac{1}{3}\times \pi \times r^2\times h\\\\142 = \frac{1}{3}\times \pi \times r^2\times 8.5\\\\142\times 3 = pi \times r^2\times 8.5\\\\426= pi \times r^2\times 8.5\\\\[/tex]

After solving this, the r should be 3.99

Therefore we can conclude that the radius to the nearest centimeter of the paper cup is 4cm.
