Question

A bucket that holds a volume

of 601 in. and has height 10.7 in. What is the radius of the bucket? Use
3.14 for .

Answer 1

4.22in

Explanation:

Given data

Volume= 601in^3

Height= 10.7in

Radius= ??

The expression for the volume of a cylindrical bucket is

V=πr^2h

substitute

601= 3.14*r^2*10.7

601= 33.598r^2

601/33.598= r^2

17.88=r^2

square both sides

r= √17.88

r= 4.22 in

Hence the radius of the bucket is 4.22in
