Answer:
V\text{ = }903cm^3

Explanations:

The height of the cylinder, h = 9.5 cm

The diameter is 1.5 cm longer than the height

d = h + 1.5

d = 9.5 + 1.5

d = 11 cm

The radius = diameter / 2

r = d/2

r = 11/2 cm

The volume of a cylinder is given by the formula:


V\text{ = }\pi r^2h
\begin{gathered} V\text{ = }(22)/(7)*((11)/(2))^2*9.5 \\ V\text{ = }(22)/(7)*(121)/(4)*9.5 \\ V\text{ = }903cm^3 \end{gathered}
