Question

What is the volume of a cylinder, in cubic ft, with a height of 17ft and a base diameter of 6ft? Round to the nearest tenths place.​

Answer 1

`volume = \pi {r}^(2) h \\ = 3.146 * {( (6)/(2) )}^(2) * 17 \\ = 481.338 \: {ft}^(3)`

Answer 2

volume of cylinder = pi*r^2*h

radius = 1/2 * diameter

radius = 6/2 = 3

volume = pi*3^2*17 = 9pi*17 = 481.3(nearest tenth and using 3.14 for pi)
