Sandra calculated the height of a cylinder that has a volume of 576 pi cubic centimeters and a radius of 8 centimeters. Her work

is shown below. V = B h Step 1: 576 pi = pi 8 squared h Step 2: 576 pi = 64 pi h Step 3: StartFraction 576 pi Over 64 pi EndFraction = StartFraction 64 pi Over 64 pi EndFraction h Step 4: h = 9 pi cm What error did Sandra make when calculating the height of the cylinder? In step 1, she substituted into the volume formula incorrectly. In step 2, she calculated 8 squared incorrectly. It should be 16 rather than 64. In step 4, the pi should have canceled, making the correct answer 9 cm. Sandra calculated the height of the cylinder correctly.

Answer:

The error was made in step 4, \pi should have also been cancelled making the correct answer as 9 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Volume of cylinder, V = 576 \pi\ cm^3

Radius of cylinder, r = 8 cm

To find:

The error in calculating the height of cylinder by Sandra ?

Solution:

We know that volume of a cylinder is given as:

V = B h

Where B is the area of circular base and

h is the height of cylinder.

Area of a circle is given as, B = \pi r^2

Let us put it in the formula of volume:

V = \pi r^2 h

Step 1:

Putting the values of V and r:

576\pi = \pi 8^2 h

So, it is correct.

Step 2:

Solving square of 8:

576\pi = \pi \times 64\times  h

So, step 2 is also correct.

Step 3:

h=\dfrac{576\pi}{64 \pi} = \dfrac{64 \pi \times 9}{64\pi}

Step 4:

Cancelling 64 \times \pi,

h = 9 cm

So, the error was made in step 4, \pi should have also been cancelled making the correct answer as 9 cm.

Couldn't do this one help needed
Paladinen [302]

Answer:

shown below.

Step-by-step explanation:

v = 150 since 180 - 30

for w we need 2y and x. the base angles of the triangle are 30 and 50 therefore x = 100. 2y = 30 because corresponding angles. ergo, w = 50

x = 100

y = 15

z = 50

I would say B with my answer. You'd divide 570 by 19 then multiply by 8.
