What did you get?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i haven't got anything :(

OpenStudy (goldphenoix):

Do you know the formula for finding the volume of a cylinder?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

V = pi r^2 h

OpenStudy (goldphenoix):

Great. Now plug that in. \[\large \large r^2\pi h =438.72 \] The diameter is 7 cm. Do you know how to find the radius then?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

this radius would be 3.5 soo 3.5^2 ph = 438.72

OpenStudy (goldphenoix):

Great. \[\large \large 3.5^2\pi h = 438.72\] 3.5^2 = ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i got 0.087 but im doing something wrong..

OpenStudy (goldphenoix):

3.5^2 does not give you a number less than 1. 3.5 * 3.5 = ? Must be over 9. Tip: Use a calculator.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

12.25

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohhh

OpenStudy (goldphenoix):

Graet. \[\large \large 12.25 \pi h = 438.72\] 438.72 / 12.25 = ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

35.8 ? :o

OpenStudy (goldphenoix):

Not quite. Did you use a calculatoR?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yess..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i put it in these ( ) ( ) too

OpenStudy (goldphenoix):

Oh. Wait. Yes, that is correct. >_> (I took a step too far) Alright, so you are left with, \[\large \large \pi h = 35.8\]

OpenStudy (goldphenoix):

35.8 / (pi) = ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

11.39 which is 11.4 ? (x

OpenStudy (goldphenoix):

Yep. :) Ding ding. If you want to make sure if h = 11.4, then plug it in. 3.5^2*(pi)*11.4 =

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohh yay! thanks so much :) i plugged it in too.

OpenStudy (goldphenoix):

Great. I hope this help. :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it did a lot :)
