6. A cylinder holds 300 gallons of water. How many gallons of water will a cone with the same base area and height as the cylinder hold?
a. 50 gallons b. 100 gallons c. 900 gallons

100 idk maybe because the cone is smaller up top and won't hold as much

answer: x= -2y

step-by-step explanation:

option a is correct.

step-by-step explanation:

scale factor: it is used to find proportional measurements.

proportions means having the same ratio.

scale factor is the ratio of the model measurement to the actual measurement in a simplest form.

or we can say that the ratio of any two corresponding lengths in two similar geometric figures

if the scale factor is more than 1, then it is an enlargement,

if the scale factor less than 1, then it is a reduction.

given the two geometric figure:

by definition of proportions, we have
