Question

the radius of a cylindrical water - tank is 5.5 ft, and its height is 15 ft. what is the volume of the tank? use the value 3.14 for π, and round your answer to the nearest whole number. be sure to include the correct unit in your answer.

Explanation:

Step1: Recall cylinder volume formula

$V = \pi r^{2}h$

Step2: Substitute values

$V=3.14\times(5.5)^{2}\times15$

Step3: Calculate

$V = 3.14\times30.25\times15=1424.925\approx1425\ ft^{3}$

Answer:

$1425\ ft^{3}$
