Jason wants to fill a cylindrical water tank to its full capacity. He knows that the volume of the tank is equal to the product of pie, the square of the radius of the tank, and the height of the tank. Jason measured the height of the tank and found it to be 15 feet. He also measured the radius of the cylindrical tank and found it to be 10 feet. If V represents the volume of the cylindrical tank, then which of the following equations can be used to calculate the volume of the tank?

V = π×10²×15
can be used to calculate the volume of the tank.

I hope your text does not have that constant as "pie." It is not "pie;" it is "pi", the name of the 16th letter of the Greek alphabet.

Answer:

The volume of tank is calculated by the equation
V=\pi * (10)^2* (15).

Explanation:

It is given that the height of the cylindrical tank is 15 feet and the radius of the cylindrical tank is 10 feet.

The formula to find the volume of cylinder is


V=\pi r^2h


V=\pi * (10)^2* (15)


V\approx 4712.39

Therefore the volume of tank is calculated by the equation
V=\pi * (10)^2* (15) and the volume of tank is 4712.39 feet³.
