The volume of a cylinder can be calculated using the formula V = πr^2h, where r is the base radius and h is the height.
Plugging in the values r = 7cm and h = 17cm into the formula, we get:
V = π(7)^2(17)
V = π(49)(17)
V = π(833)
To find the volume to the nearest tenths place, we use the approximation π = 3.14:
V ≈ 3.14(833)
V ≈ 2619.42 cm^3
Therefore, the volume of the cylinder is approximately 2619.4 cubic cm to the nearest tenths place.
What is the volume, in cubic cm, of a cylinder with a height of 17cm and a base radius of 7cm, to the nearest tenths place?
