Exercise 22 Page 835

Use the formula for the volume of a cylinder.

About 2.52 feet

Practice makes perfect

We are asked to find the diameter of the following cylinder.

The purpose of the cylinder is to hold V_\text{sand}=10 cubic feet of sand. Let r be its radius. Let's use the formula for the volume of a cylinder and substitute the known values to find r.

V_\text{sand}=\pi r^2h

SubstituteII

V_\text{sand}={\color{#0000FF}{10}}, h= 2

10=π r^2( 2)

Solve for r

Multiply

10=2π r^2

DivEqn

.LHS /2π.=.RHS /2π.

10/2π=r^2
