What was one reason spain sponsored the first voyage of columbus to the west
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

Keep this little phrase in mind: <u>gold, glory, and God.</u> In that order. The reason the Catholic monarchs Isabella and Ferdinand sponsored Columbus was

  • <u>gold.</u> They wanted to get rich off of gold, which would enable them to increase their wealth and trading power as per the economic system of mercantilism.
  • <u>glory.</u> They wanted their names to be famous. Two of the islands that Columbus saw were named after the two rulers (Isabela Island and Fernandina).
  • <u>God.</u> They were highly Catholic (remember the Spanish Inquisition?) and they wanted to spread that, in theory, to the primitive natives.

Find the volume of the cylinder use 3.14 for : Radius 34 m : Height 27
vodka [1.7K]

\pi {r}^{2} h

The formula is above, so if you plug it in it should be 34 squared times 27.

24 squared is 1156. Multiply 1156 by 27 and you have 31212. If you have to solve it with 3.14, just multiply that by 3.14 (Would take too long for me).
