A jar of peanut butter has a height of 16 centimeters and a width of 10 centimeters. Find the volume of the peanut butter jar. Use 3.14 for pi.(1 point)
The formula to find the volume of a cylinder is V = πr^2h, where r is the radius and h is the height.
First, we need to find the radius:
The width of the jar is the diameter of the circular base, so the radius (r) is half of the width: r = 10 cm / 2 = 5 cm
Now we can substitute the values into the formula:
V = 3.14 * (5)^2 * 16
V = 3.14 * 25 * 16
V = 1250.4
Therefore, the volume of the peanut butter jar is 1250.4 cubic centimeters.
