Someone pls help with volume of cylinder?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

v = pi * r^2 * h

OpenStudy (girlgoyleh.):

Yes, i know.

OpenStudy (girlgoyleh.):

But it isn't that

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that is the formula, what do you need then?

OpenStudy (girlgoyleh.):

The volume of a cylinder, found using 3.14 to approximate pi, is 30,395.2 cm3. The radius of the cylinder is 11 cm. What is the height of the cylinder? Express your answer as a whole number. cm

OpenStudy (girlgoyleh.):

wouldn't you have to divide 30,395.2 by 11^2? because i did that last time and i got it wrong.

sammixboo (sammixboo):

Ok, so plug in what you got. Volume = 3.14 * r^2 * h 30,395.2 = 3.14 * 11^2 * h Now simplify. What is 11^2??

OpenStudy (girlgoyleh.):

121

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@sammixboo how old are you?

sammixboo (sammixboo):

Right so we have 30,395.2 = 3.14 * 121* h Now still simplifying what is 3.14*121

OpenStudy (girlgoyleh.):

380

OpenStudy (girlgoyleh.):

rounded

OpenStudy (anonymous):

30395.2 / 379.94 = ??

sammixboo (sammixboo):

Good, but let's not round. So we have 30,395.2 = 379.94 * h To solve this divide 379.94 on both sides of the equation 30,395.2 / 379.94 = 379.94 * h / 379.94 30,395.2 / 379.94 = h

OpenStudy (girlgoyleh.):

80!
