Algebra.Com's Answer #135138 by nerdybill(7384)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! First, determine the volume of the cylinder: \n" ); document.write( "volume = (pi)r^2h \n" ); document.write( "where \n" ); document.write( "pi is 3.14 \n" ); document.write( "r is radius (1 ft) \n" ); document.write( "h is height (4 ft) \n" ); document.write( ". \n" ); document.write( "volume = (pi)r^2h \n" ); document.write( "volume = (3.14)(1^2)4 \n" ); document.write( "volume = (3.14)(1)4 \n" ); document.write( "volume = (3.14)4 \n" ); document.write( "volume = 12.56 cubic feet \n" ); document.write( ". \n" ); document.write( "Since each cubic feet holds 7.5 gallons: \n" ); document.write( "12.56 * 7.5 = 94.2 gallons \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
