a water tower has a height of 25 meters and a width of 16 meters. what is the volume of the water tower? use 3.14 for pi.(1 point) responses 15,700 cubic meters 15,700 cubic meters 20,096 cubic meters 20,096 cubic meters 7,850 cubic meters 7,850 cubic meters 5,024 cubic meters
To calculate the volume of the water tower, you can use the formula for the volume of a cylinder which is V = πr^2h where r is the radius and h is the height.
Given that the width of the water tower is 16 meters, the radius is half of that, so r = 8 meters.
Now, substitute the values into the formula:
V = 3.14 * 8^2 * 25
V = 3.14 * 64 * 25
V = 5,024 cubic meters
Therefore, the volume of the water tower is 5,024 cubic meters.
