Answer:
Explanation:
The volume of a cylinder is given by
[tex]V=\pi r^2h[/tex]Now, to correct the order of the cylinders from least to greatest, we have to calculate the volume of each.
(a). A cylinder with a diameter of 28 units and a height of 18 units.
Diameter is 2 times radius; therefore, r = 14 and the volume is
[tex]V=\pi(14)^2\times18[/tex][tex]V=3529\pi[/tex](b). A cylinder with a radius of 13 units and a height of 17 units.
The volume is
[tex]V=\pi(13)^2\cdot17[/tex][tex]V=2873\pi[/tex](c). A cylinder with a diameter of 30 units and a height of 14 units.
The radius is 15 units; therefore, the volume is
[tex]V=\pi(15)^2\cdot14[/tex][tex]V=3150\pi[/tex](d). A cylinder with a radius of 12 units and a height of 20 units.
The volume is
[tex]V=\pi(12)^2\cdot20[/tex][tex]V=2880\pi[/tex]Hence, from least volume to greatest volume the order is
[tex](b)<(d)<(c)<(a)[/tex]
