The formula to solve for this would be pi(r^2)xheight. Essentially what this formula does is it takes the are of the base (pi x r^2) and multiplies it by the height of the cylinder to find how many times the base can stack on itself until it reaches the top. This formula of base are times height works for all prisms with two bases. Here are the steps to solve:
1) plug in the values
- pi(15^2) x 45
2) solve for the base area of one of the circles
- pi(15^2)=225pi
3) multiply the base area by the height
- 225pi x 45 = 10,125pi
4) final answer: the tank can hold 10,125pi cubic feet of water

Inequalities will have a <, >, <=, =>, = or will be worded as "Less than", "greater than", etc.
Equations must have mathematical functions and equal sign.
15=3x is an equation since 3x = 3*x
Finally, expressions are mathematical functions that have no equal signs.
When asked to evaluate, you have to plug in the given value of n (in this case), into the given equation.
n/6 = ?
In order to find out ?, we need to know what n is.
Well, n = 12
So, plug in 12 for n
n/6 would now be written as 12/6 in order to be evaluated
Now, simplify.... What you get for 12/6 is the answer
