Responses

2π (7)

π(10)^2

π(7)^2

2π (10)

Answer 1

π(7)^2

Answer 2

explain how that is correct

Answer 3

The expression π(7)^2 represents the area of the base of the cylinder. In this case, the radius of the cylinder is 7 cm, so squaring the radius and multiplying by π gives the area of the base in square centimeters. This is the value of B in the equation V = Bh for calculating the volume of the cylinder.
