Question

7) A silo is a building shaped like a cylinder used to store grain. The diameter of a silo is 9.5 meters, and the height of 16 meters. 9.5 m Which equation can be used to find V, the volume of this silo in cubic meters? V = n (9)?(16) O V = T (4.75)2(16) O V = T (16)?(4.75) h V = r (16)2(9)

Answer 1

Given data:

The given diameter of cylinder d=9.5 meters.

The given height of the cylinder is h=16 meters.

The expression for the volume of the cylinder is,

`V=\pi((d)/(2))^2h`

Substitute the given values in the above expression.

`\begin{gathered} V=\pi((9.5)/(2))^2(16\text{ )} \\ =\pi(4.75)^2(16\text{ )} \end{gathered}`

Thus, the second option is correct.
