The cylindrical storage tank has a height of 12 feet.Which of the following expressions could be used to find the volume of the tank in cubic feet?
V = r ^ 2 * pi * h
V = 12 * r ^ 2 * pi
OR
V = ( d ^ 2 * pi ) * 12 / 4
V = 3 * ( d ^ 2 * pi )
To find the volume of a cylindrical storage tank, you can use the formula V = πr^2h, where V represents the volume, π (pi) is the mathematical constant approximately equal to 3.14159, r is the radius of the tank's base, and h is the height of the tank.
Since the problem only provides the height of the tank, the missing piece of information we need is the radius. Without the radius, we can't determine the volume of the tank. Therefore, none of the given expressions can accurately calculate the volume of the tank.
If you have the radius of the tank's base, you can substitute it into the formula V = πr^2h, and then evaluate to find the volume in cubic feet.
