The volume of a cylinder is 288cubic inches. the radius of the circular base is 4 inches. what is the height of the cylinder? recall the formula v= a.9 inches b.12 inches c.18 inches d.36 inches

The answer is:

The correct option is:

C. 18 inches.

To calculate the volume of a cylinder we need to use the formula:

We are given a cylinder that has a volume of 288 π cubic inches and we know that its radius is equal to 4 inches, so, to calculate the height of the cylinder, we need to isolate it from the equation of volume, so, isolating we have:

Now, substituting the given information, we have:

Hence, we have that the correct answer is:

C. 18 inches.

Have a nice day!

The correct answer is option c 18 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Points to remember

Volume of cylinder =  πr²h

Where r - Radius of cylinder and

h - Height of cylinder

To find the height of cylinder

Here volume = 288π cubic inches and radius = 4 inches

Volume = πr²h

288π = π* 4² * h

288 = 16h

h = 288/16 = 18 inches

Therefore height of cylinder = 18 inches

The correct answer is option c 18 inches

add all the numbers and check the ones place.

the answer is 486. as the ones place is more than 4, the estimation will be the next 10 ie, 490
