Round your answer to the nearest tenth if necessary.

Answer 1

The formula for the volume of a cylinder is V = πr^2h, where r is the radius of the cylinder and h is its height.

Substituting the given values, we get:
V = π(1.3 in)^2(5 in)
V = π(1.69 in^2)(5 in)
V = 8.45π in^3

Rounding to the nearest tenth, we get:
V ≈ 26.5 in^3

Therefore, the volume of the soup can is approximately 26.5 cubic inches.
