Answer

Option A is correct.

h = 9 feet

Explanation

The volume of a cylinder is given as

Volume = πr²h

where

π = pi = 3.14

r = radius of the cylinder = 16 feet

h = height of the cylinder = ?

Volume = 7252 cubic feet

Volume = πr²h

7252 = (3.14) (16²) (h)

7252 = 803.84h

Divide both sides by 803.84

(7252/803.84) = (803.84h/803.84)

9 = h

h = 9 feet

Hope this Helps!!!
