Question

The radius of a cylindrical construction pipe is 1.5 ft. If the pipe is 17 ft long, what is the volume?

Use the value 3.14 for π and round your answer to the nearest whole number.

Answer 1

120.105 square feet.

Explanation:

Given that the radius of a cylindrical construction pipe is 1.5 ft, to determine its volume, given that the pipe is 17 ft long, the following calculation must be performed, knowing that the volume of a cylinder arises from multiplying the number pi by the radius at square of the cylinder, and that result by the height of it:

(3.14 x (1.5^2)) x 17 = X

(3.14 x 2.25) x 17 = X

7.065 x 17 = X

120.105 = X

Thus, the volume of the cylinder is 120.105 square feet.
