so I've been using the formula for the volume of a cylinder but I'm still not getting anything even remotely close to my answer choices. the volume is 438.08π mL and the radius is 3.7 cm. I'm solving for the height

Answer:

H = 32 cm

Explanation:

The area of a cylinder is given by


V=\pi r^2h

Now solving for h gives


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

Now V = 438.08 π and r = 3.7 cm. Putting these values in the above equations gives


h=\frac{438.08\pi\operatorname{cm}^3}{\pi(3.7cm)^2}
\boxed{h=32\operatorname{cm}\text{.}}

which is our answer!
