Question

A cylinder has a radius of 10 feet and a height of 11.4 feet. What is the volume of the cylinder to the nearest tenth ft³? Use 3.14 to approximate pi. 114.0 ft³ 228.0 ft³ 2145.1 ft³ 3579.6 ft³

Answer 1

V = (pi) * r^2 * h
V = 3.14 * 10^2 * 11.4
V = 35.796 * 100
V = 3579.6 ft ^3 <===

Answer 2

ANSWER

The volume of the cylinder to the nearest tenth is $3579.6ft^3$.

EXPLANATION

The volume of a cylinder is given by the formula;

$Volume = \pi r^2h$.

It was stated in the question directly that, the cylinder has a radius of $10$feet and a height of $11.4$ feet.

So we now substitute $\pi=3.14$, $r=10$ and $h=11.4$ in to the formula for finding the volume of the cylinder.

This implies that;

$Volume = (3.14) (10)^2(11.4)$

$Volume = (3.14) (100)(11.4)$

$Volume = 3579.6ft^3$ to the nearest tenth.
