Question

The company you're interning at stores liquid in cylinder-shaped tanks, the smallest of which are 10 feet in diameter and 30 feet high. How much liquid can a small tank hold if filled completely full

Answer 1

Answer:

$2,355\ ft^{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The volume of cylinder is equal to

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

we have

$r=10/2=5\ ft$ ----> the radius is half the diameter

$h=30\ ft$

substitute

$V=\pi (5)^{2}(30)$

$V=750\pi\ ft^{3}$ ----> exact value

assume

$\pi =3.14$

$V=750(3.14)=2,355\ ft^{3}$
