What is the volume, in cubic feet, of a cylinder with a height of 3 feet and a base radius of 2 feet, to the nearest tenths place?
The volume of a cylinder can be calculated using the formula V = πr^2h, where r is the radius of the base and h is the height of the cylinder.
Given that the height is 3 feet and the radius is 2 feet, we can plug these values into the formula:
V = π(2)^2(3)
V = 12π
Approximating π to 3.14, we get:
V ≈ 12 x 3.14
V ≈ 37.7 cubic feet
Therefore, the volume of the cylinder is approximately 37.7 cubic feet to the nearest tenths place.
