+23PTS! PDF Volume question -_- find diameter from the cylinder. I got 9 answer is 6 how???

Answer: See below
Explanation:
For this question, we are given the volume, and we want to find the diameter. We have to work backwards to get our radius, then to find the diameter.
[tex]V=\pi r^2h[/tex] (Volume of cylinder)
[tex]72\pi =\pi r^2h[/tex] (The π cancel out)
[tex]72 =r^2(8)[/tex] (Plug in h=8)
[tex]9=r^2[/tex] (Divide 8)
[tex]r=3[/tex] (Square root of 9 is 3)
Now that we have our radius, we can find our diameter.
[tex]d=2r[/tex] (Equation for diameter)
[tex]d=2(3)\\[/tex] (Plug in r=3)
[tex]d=6yards[/tex] (Multiply)
