Q. What is the volume, in cubic feet, of a cylinder with a height of 13 feet and a base radius of 10 feet, to the nearest tenths place?Answer: V=□ feet 3
Formula Explanation: To find the volume of a cylinder, we use the formula V=πr2h, where V is the volume, r is the radius of the base, and h is the height of the cylinder. We are given the radius r=10 feet and the height h=13 feet.
Radius Calculation: First, we square the radius: r2=(10 feet)2=100 square feet.
Volume Calculation: Next, we multiply the squared radius by the height: 100 square feet×13 feet=1300 cubic feet.
Multiplication by Pi: Now, we multiply this result by π (pi), which is approximately 3.14159. So, V=π×1300 cubic feet.
Volume Calculation: Calculating the volume: V≈3.14159×1300≈4085.467 cubic feet.
Rounding: Finally, we round the volume to the nearest tenths place: V≈4085.5 cubic feet.
