Question

The national park has a new kiosk which visitors pass through as they enter the park. The kiosk is in the shape of a cylinder with a diameter of 5 meters and a height of 3 meters and a conical roof that measures 2 meters in height. What is the volume of the kiosk? Round your answer to the nearest cubic meter

Answer 1

Answer:

72 m^3

Step-by-step explanation:

volume of the kiosk = volume of cylinder + volume of cone

volume of a cylinder = nr^2h

n = 3.14

r = radius = 5/2 = 2.5

the diameter is the straight line that passes through the centre of a circle and touches the two edges of the circle.

A radius is half of the diameter

3.14 x (2.5^2) x 3 = 58.88  

Volume of a cone = 1/3(nr^2h)

3.14 x 1/3 x (2.5^2) x 2 = 13.08

13.08 + 58.88 = 71.96

To round off to the nearest cubic meter, look at the first number after the decimal, if it is less than 5, add zero to the units term, If it is equal or greater than 5, add 1 to the units term.

= 72 m^3
