Do you know the equation for the volume of a cylinder?

anonymous · Answer

5 units

10 units

12.5 units

Thoes Are The Choices

anonymous · Answer

The equation for the volume of a cylinder is:

$$V = \pi r^2 * h$$

Since we are given the volume (V) and the height (h), we can solve for the radius (r).

Then, we know that the diameter is just twice the radius, we can find that.

anonymous · Answer

so how would i get started?

anonymous · Answer

Use that equation, plug in what you know, and solve for r.

diameter = 2*r

(Don't forget that last step!)

anonymous · Answer

so the answer is 10?

anonymous · Answer

That's not what I get for it.

anonymous · Answer

So its a decimal 12.5
