your answers all have a \(\pi\) in them
compute
\[\frac{r^2h}{3}\] then stick a \(\pi\) next to it
TheSmartOne (thesmartone):
However, your answer choices have pi in it :P
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i.e. compute
\[\frac{5^2\times 18}{3}\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
cancel first, multiply last
OpenStudy (anonymous):
\[\frac{5^2\times 18}{3}=25\times 6=...\]
