Question

Barrett's mom has a flower vase that is shaped like a perfect cylinder. The vase has aheight of 9 inches, and its radius is 4 inches. What is the total volume of water that theflower vase can hold (to the nearest whole number)? Use V = 3.14r2h452 in45 in50 in502 inNow help me.

Answer 1

SOLUTION

The formula given to us to use as the volume of a cylinder is:

$=3.14r^2h$

Given parameters

r=4inches

h=9inches

Substituting these parameters into the formula above, we will have:

$=3.14\times4^2\times9$$\begin{gathered} =3.14\times16\times9 \\ =452.16 \\ =452in^3(to\text{ the nearest whole number)} \end{gathered}$

The correct answer is the first option.
