Here is the formula for the volume of a cylinder. :)
OpenStudy (kamibug):
Plug in the height and radius and solve...
V = pi*9^2*7
Can you solve that? :D
OpenStudy (anonymous):
no i suck at math can you explain how i would solve that plz
OpenStudy (kamibug):
No problem. ^.^
First find what 9 squared is. What's 9*9?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
81

Right! So now we have:
V = pi*81*7
Let's multiply 81 by pi (3.14) now.
What's 81* 3.14? :)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
how did you get 3.14 ??
OpenStudy (kamibug):
3.14 is pi. That's what the sign \[\pi \] in the formula means. :)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
oh that makes sense so now i need to multiply 81*3.14 ??
OpenStudy (kamibug):
Yup! :3

OpenStudy (kamibug):
That's right. :D Now the last step is to multiply that by the height, 7.
254.34 * 7 = ?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
1780.38 ??
OpenStudy (kamibug):
That's correct. :) Now you have the volume. :D Great job! ^.^
