PLEASE HELP ME!!!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The volume for a cylinder is given by the formula V = r2h, where r is the radius of the cylinder and h is the height of the cylinder. If the volume of a cylinder with a height of 6 centimeters is 384 cubic centimeters, then what is the radius of the cylinder?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A.64cm B.32cm C.48cm D.8cm

@DanJS can you help me please??

OpenStudy (rushwr):

are u sure that it V=2rh is the equation shouldn't it have a pi value sum where ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah hold on its

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[V=\pi r ^{2}h\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and the other one is \[384\pi \]

OpenStudy (rushwr):

if that's so \[r ^{2} = \frac{ V }{ \pi h }\] \[r = \sqrt{\frac{ V }{ \pi h }}\] Substitute and tell me the answer !!!!!

OpenStudy (rushwr):

make sure that u substitute the value with units then u can see pi is getting cancelled off .

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i dont know how

OpenStudy (rushwr):

Did u get the part how I subjected r ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

because r is the radius and you have to find the radius of the cylinder thats why

OpenStudy (rushwr):

u got that part right? now it's just the substitution and calculation

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah i got it
