When A varies jointly as B and C then we say A is proportional to B times C or, A = k*B*C where k is the constant of proportionality.
So when they say (volume) varies jointly as (the square of radius) and (height) then we can say V = k*r2*h
But V = 25π when r = 5 and h = 3. Plugging those values into our V = k*r2*h equation we get 25π = k*52*3 or 25π = 75k then dividing both sides by 75 we get k = π/3
Now we know k so we can write our equation as V = π/3*r2*h
We can now solve for volume if r = 3 and h = 6
V = π/3*(3)2*(6) = 18π cubic inches

Okay that makes a little more sense to me. Thank you so much !!! :)10/18/19
