V = πr^2 h
= π (17^2)(27) = 24513.84
using 3.14 for π
V = 4.14(17^2)(27) = 24501.42
you are right!
I need to find the volume of a cylinder. Use 3.14 for pi...I think the answer is 24,501.42 m^2...the picture shown is a cylinder with a diameter of 34m and a heigth of 27m
I know how to work these problems out and I got 24,501.42m^2 but the computer is giving me an answer of 24,523.71...please check my answer...thank you

You meant to put 3.14 on the secon part...right?
second part I meant....right??
You did the problem correctly. I am not sure how exactly you entered the numbers into the computer for pi, but it looks like with an answer of 24,523.71 the computer used an approzimation for pi based on the fraction 22/7.
22/7 = 3.142857....
If you plug the 22/7 instead of 3.14 you will get what the computer gets...
22/7 = 3.142857....

Thank you Jeff....
I find it very odd, that the "computer" would use 22/7 for the value of π.
Surely it would have better value than that built in
Even the cheapest calculator will use about 9 decimal places for accuracy.
It looks to me that whatever "input routine" they are using, needs an immediate update to bring it into the 21st century.

Reiny, Agreed, but that is what it appears to be using. I am guessing it was a software program and not the actual computer using that approximation.
What really irks me about pi is that most people know it is 3.1415....., but have NO idea what it actually represents....

BTW Cassie, please please always remember that pi is simply a circle's circumference divided by it's diameter. For every circle, no matter the size...
This is why it shows up in so many formulas for circles, cylinders, cones, etc.

ok ....thank you
uhhhhh im still lost ill give yall the answers when I get done with the test
been 3 months she dont care
PLSS LMAOO
bruh
Soemone in 2022 give answers please..?
yall aint no help😭.
There's a named Clyde with the tutor icon, watch out guys he can leak ip addresses I saw him do it before!!
I meant to say there's a HACKER named Clyde I forgot to put hacker tho
Bro @Jinjer why are you stalking me dude? Okay maybe I am a hacker but who cares?
Wtf
wtf
