To find the volume of a cylinder, we use the formula:
\[ V = \pi r^2 h \]
where:
- \(V\) is the volume,
- \(r\) is the radius,
- \(h\) is the height, and
- \(\pi\) is approximately 3.14.
Given that the height (\(h\)) is 6 inches and the radius (\(r\)) is 2 inches, we can plug these values into the formula:
\[ V = 3.14 \times (2)^2 \times 6 \]
Calculating step-by-step:
-
Calculate \(r^2\): \[ (2)^2 = 4 \]
-
Multiply by height: \[ 4 \times 6 = 24 \]
-
Finally, multiply by \(\pi\): \[ V = 3.14 \times 24 = 75.36 \]
Therefore, the volume of the salsa jar is \(75.36\) cubic inches.
The correct response is: 75.36 cubic inches.
