Exercise 7 Page 875

Use the formula for the volume of a cylinder.

About 36.9 cubic inches

A circular pillar candle can be modeled by the following cylinder.

The height of the cylinder is h= 6 inches. Since the diameter of the base is 2.8 inches, the radius of the cylinder is r= 2.82= 1.4 inches. We are asked to the volume of the candle. Let's do it using the formula for the volume of a cylinder!

\textcolor{darkorange}{V_\text{candle}}=\pi {\color{#0000FF}{r}}^2{\color{#009600}{h}}

Substitute values and evaluate

SubstituteII

r= 1.4, h= 6

\textcolor{darkorange}{V_\text{candle}}=\pi ({\color{#0000FF}{1.4}})^2({\color{#009600}{6}})
