Calculate the approximate volume of a cylindrical tank that is 10 ft. wide and 30 ft. tall. Use 3.14 for π .(1 point)

1 answer

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

Given that the tank is 10 ft wide, the radius (r) is half of that, so r = 5 ft.

Now, substitute r = 5 ft and h = 30 ft into the formula:

V ≈ π(5)^2(30)
V ≈ 3.14(25)(30)
V ≈ 3.14(750)
V ≈ 2355 cubic feet

Therefore, the approximate volume of the cylindrical tank is 2355 cubic feet.
