If the dimensions of a cylinder are doubled, then its volume is quadrupled. True False

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

do you know the formula for volume of a cylinder?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

not really!

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

\[V = \pi r^2 h\] where r is radius and h is the height radius and height are the dimensions can you verify your question now?

OpenStudy (nali):

still need help?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ya!

OpenStudy (nali):

sub into the equation friendly numbers the double those dimentions and see if the volume is really quadruples

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so it would be false?

OpenStudy (nali):

wait u did that already ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ya i think?

OpenStudy (nali):

try doing it and tell me what u get

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i didnt my sister figured it out and i dont know how she did it!

OpenStudy (nali):

ok the equation is V= pi r^2 h so sub in 3 and 4 for r and h respecitvley then solve for the volume after that sub in the double of 3 and 4 which are 6 and 8 and then solve to find out the quadrupled part divide the first volume by the secound volume

thanks!

OpenStudy (nali):

ur welcome
