Question

A cylinder has a height of 15 feet in a diameter of 14feetFind the volume for each problem used 3.14 for pi in round your answer to the nearest tenth

Answer 1

In general, the volume of a cylinder is given by the formula below

`\begin{gathered} V_(cylinder)=\pi r^2h \\ \pi=3.14 \\ r\rightarrow\text{ radius, one half of the diameter} \\ h\rightarrow\text{ height} \end{gathered}`

Therefore, in our case,

`\begin{gathered} V_(cylinder)=3.14*((14)/(2))^2*15=3.14*49*15=2307.9 \\ \Rightarrow V_(cylinder)=2307.9 \end{gathered}`

The answer is 2307.9ft^3
