Cylinder A has a radius of 7 inches and a height of 5 inches. Cylinder B has a volume of 490π. What is the percent change in volume between cylinders A and B? Cylinder B is 50% smaller than cylinder A. Cylinder B is 75% bigger than cylinder A. Cylinder B is 150% smaller than cylinder A. Cylinder B is 100% bigger than cylinder A.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Cylinder A = 769.69 Cylinder B = 490 I don't know what to do after that

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No that is incorrect as Cylinder B would be 490 x (pi).

OpenStudy (montesanna99):

Multiple 490 and pi what do u get

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1538.6

OpenStudy (montesanna99):

Ok so now Cylinder A= 769.69 Cylinder B= 1538.6 Since they are saying in the answer Cylinder B is ?% to Cylinder put 1538.6/769.69

OpenStudy (montesanna99):

Oh wait I'm sorry put it the other way

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so 50%

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but why do you do 490 * pi ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

o nevermind

OpenStudy (anonymous):

didn't see that it in the question :p

thanks

OpenStudy (montesanna99):

Wow I'm sorry got myself mixed Cylinder B is twice the size of Cylinder A

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think it's D actually

OpenStudy (montesanna99):

Yea 100%

OpenStudy (anonymous):

769.69 / 1539.38 = 0.5 0.5 * 100 = 50 So A is 50% smaller or B is 100% larger

OpenStudy (montesanna99):

exactly
