Question

fine the approximate volume of a coke that measures 5.5 inches tall and 3 inches long across the top of the can

Answer 1

The height (h) of the can is 5.5 in, and the diameter is 3 in, which means that the radius (r) is 3/2 = 1.5 in.

The can has a form of a cylinder. Then, its volume is computed as follows:

`\begin{gathered} V=\pi r^2h \\ V=\pi\cdot1.5^2\cdot5.5 \\ V\approx39in^3 \end{gathered}`
