A. 1,000 cubic centimeters
B. 5,000 cubic centimeters
C. 10,000 cubic centimeters
D. 15,000 cubic centimeters
To calculate the volume of a cylinder, you use the formula V = πr^2h, where r is the radius and h is the height.
Plugging in the values given:
V = π(29)^2(36)
V = π(841)(36)
V = 30276π
Approximating π as 3.14:
V ≈ 30276 * 3.14
V ≈ 95,079.64 cubic centimeters
Therefore, the closest option to the volume of the trash can is D. 15,000 cubic centimeters.
