Answer:

D. 0.8

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for finding the volume of cylinders is:

V= (pi)(r^2)(h)

r is the radius and h is the height. V is the volume.

plug in the values.

375 = (3.14)(12.5^2)(h)

375 = (3.14)(156.25)(h)

375 = 490.625 x h

Divide both sides of the equation by 490.625

0.7643... = h

round the decimal to the tenths place and get 0.8

Answer:

0.8 would be the approximate height

Step-by-step explanation:

you can make an equation and solve for the height (x)

375 = 3.14(12.5^2)x

when you solve this equation, you specifically get 0.76. but your question is asking for the approximate, so you would round it up to 0.8. hope this helps!
