Question

Which is the correct first step in finding the area of the base of a cylinder with a volume of 26x cubic meters and a height of 6.5 meters?

v=bh 6.5=b(26x)
v=bh v=26pi+(6.5)
v=bh v=26pi(6.5)
v=bh 26pi=b(6.5)

Answer 1

this may not be the answer but i am trying to help

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

26x=(pi)(r^2)(6.5)

or

V=(area of b)(h)

26x=b(6.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

I am confused by 26x did you mean pi?

Answer 2

`v=bh \Rightarrow 26\pi=b(6.5)`

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Volume of the cylinder,
`V=26\pi\ m^3`

height of cylinder,
`h=6.5\ m`

Let the area of the base of the cylinder be:
`b\ m^2`

As we know that volume is the one dimensionally extruded form of area:

`V=b.h`

`26\pi=b*6.5`

`b=4\pi\ m^2`
