Question

How does one solve this problem? (please hurry)​

Answer 1

Answer:

5.99 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the radius of the base of a right cylinder is r and its length is l, then the volume of the cylinder will be $V = \pi r^{2} l$

Now, it is given that the volume(V) of the cylindrical tank is 2279.64 cubic feet and radius(r) of its base is 11 feet.

Therefore, the equation for getting the length(l) is

$2279.64 = \pi (11^{2} ) \times l$

⇒ $l=\frac{2279.64 \times 7}{22 \times 121} = 5.99$ feet.

So, the length of the tank is 5.99 feet. (Answer)
