grain silo has a Cylindrical Shape diameter: 19 ftheight: 46 ftwhat is the Volume?use the Value 3.14 for pie * round to the nearest whole number use the correct unit

Answer 1

Given a grain silo has a Cylindrical Shape with details:

diameter: 19 ft

height: 46 ft

Volume of a cylinder =

`V=\pi r^2h`

The diameter of the cylinder = 19ft

`\begin{gathered} \text{radius=diameter/2} \\ r=(d)/(2)=(19)/(2)=9.5ft \end{gathered}`

use the Value 3.14 for pie

`\pi=3.14`

`\begin{gathered} V=\pi r^2h \\ V=3.14*(9.5)^2*46 \\ V=13035.71ft^3 \end{gathered}`

Therefore the volume of the cylinder = 13036 ft³ (nearest whole number)
