Question

The diameter of a cylindrical construction pipe is 3 ft. If the pipe is 12 ft long,
what is its volume?
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.

Answer 1

Answer:  85 cubic feet

Work Shown:

d = 3 = diameter

r = d/2 = 3/2 = 1.5 = radius

h = 12 = height or length of the pipe

pi = 3.14 approximately

V = volume of the cylinder pipe

V = pi*r^2*h

V = 3.14*(1.5)^2*12

V = 84.78

V = 85

The cylindrical pipe's volume is about 85 cubic feet.
