Exercise 15 Page 840

Use the formulas for the surface area and volume of a cylinder.

254.5 ft^3

The given solid is a cylinder.

The volume of a cylinder with the radius r and height h can be calculated by the following formula. V=π r^2 h Since we are given both the radius r and height h of the cylinder, we can substitute them into the formula and calculate V.
V=π r^2 h
V=π ( 3)^2 ( 9)
Simplify right-hand side
V=π( 9)( 9)
V=81π
V=254.469004...
V≈ 254.5
The approximate volume of the given cylinder is 254.5 ft^3.
