Algebra.Com's Answer #685731 by addingup(3677)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! What is the volume of a cylinder? \n" ); document.write( "volume = Pi*r^2*height divide both sides by height \n" ); document.write( "volume/height = Pi*r^2 \n" ); document.write( "58/5 = 11.6 \n" ); document.write( "so now we have: \n" ); document.write( "11.6 = Pi*r^2 divide both sides by Pi (use 3.14 like the problem says): \n" ); document.write( "3.694 = r^2 take the square root on both sides; \n" ); document.write( "r = 1.92 \n" ); document.write( " |
