Question

Robert is pouring wax into cylindrical candle containers. Approximately 226.19 cubic inches of wax fill one candle jar. Which image represents that volume?

Answer 1

The answer is The first one or A

Explanation:

Answer 2

The solution in the attached figure

Explanation:

we know that

The volume of a cylinder is equal to

`V=\pi r^(2)h`

Calculate the volume of each image

Image N 1

we have

`r=3\ in`

`h=8\ in`

`\pi=3.14159`

substitute the values in the formula

`V=(3.14159)(3)^(2)(8)=226.19\ in^(3)`

Image N 2

we have

`r=4\ in`

`h=5\ in`

`\pi=3.14159`

substitute the values in the formula

`V=(3.14159)(4)^(2)(5)=251.33\ in^(3)`

Image N 3

we have

`r=2\ in`

`h=10\ in`

`\pi=3.14159`

substitute the values in the formula

`V=(3.14159)(2)^(2)(10)=125.66\ in^(3)`

Image N 4

we have

`r=5\ in`

`h=5\ in`

`\pi=3.14159`

substitute the values in the formula

`V=(3.14159)(5)^(2)(5)=392.70\ in^(3)`
