Question

if you have a cylindrical tank that's 10 feet long and has a radius of 2 feet, what's the maximum possible capacity of the tank in gallons of water if 1 cubic foot of water = 7.48 gallons? Round your answer to two decimal places.

Answer 1

Explanation:

Volume = pi * r^2 * h

r = 2 feet

h = 10 feet

Volume = 3.14 * 2^2 * 10

Volume = 125.6 cubic feet

1 cubic foot contains 7.48 gallons

125.6 cubic feet contain 7.48 * 125.6 = 930.488

The tank contains 930.49 gallons.
