Question

Find the volume of a right circular cylinder with a height of 5 cm and a diameter of 6 cm. Use 3.14 for π. Include two decimal places. (1 point)

Answer 1

wrong

Answer 2

The volume of a right circular cylinder is given by the formula V = πr^2h, where r is the radius and h is the height.

Given that the diameter is 6 cm, the radius is half of that, so r = 3 cm.

Substitute the values into the formula:
V = 3.14 * 3^2 * 5
V = 3.14 * 9 * 5
V = 141.3 cm^3

Therefore, the volume of the right circular cylinder is 141.30 cm^3.

Answer 3

I apologize for the error. Let's correct the calculation.

The height of the cylinder (h) is 5 cm and the diameter (d) is 6 cm. The radius (r) is half the diameter, so r = 6/2 = 3 cm.

The formula for the volume of a cylinder is V = πr^2h.

Now, substitute the values into the formula:
V = 3.14 * 3^2 * 5
V = 3.14 * 9 * 5
V = 141.3 cm^3

Therefore, the correct volume of the right circular cylinder is 141.30 cm^3.
