Question

a cylindrical vase has a diameter of 6 inches at the bottom of the vase there are 9 marbles each of diameter 3 inches the vase ios filled with water up to a height of 12 inches which of the following could be used to calculate the colume of water in the vase

Answer 1

Answer:

The volume of water in the vase is 339.33 in^3

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the volume of water in the vase we need the following parameters

1. the diameter/radius of the vase

2. the height /level of water in the vase

Given data

diameter d= 6 in

radius = d/2= 6/2 = 3 in

height of water h= 12 in

we know that the expression for the volume of a cylinder is given as

$volume= \pi r^2h$

Inserting our data we have

$volume= 3.142*3^2*12\\\volume= 3.142*9*12\\\volume= 339.33 in^3$
