10. Applications with Radical Expressions
Solve. Interpret the results. Include correct units.
Round your answer to two decimal places (nearest hundredth).
The radius, r, of a right circular cylinder is given by the formula
where V is the volume of the cylinder and h
is its height.
For a cylinder with a radius of 2.4 feet and height of 4 feet, find the volume
of the cylinder.
