A can is in the shape of a cylinder. The can has a volume of 450 cubic inches and a diameter of 4 inches. To the nearest tenth of an inch, what is the height of the can? (1 point)
The volume of a cylinder is given by the formula V = πr^2h, where r is the radius of the cylinder and h is the height.
We are given that the diameter of the can is 4 inches, so the radius is half of that, which is 2 inches.
Substitute the given volume of 450 cubic inches and radius of 2 inches into the formula:
450 = π(2)^2h
450 = 4πh
450 = 12.56637h
h ≈ 35.8 inches
Therefore, the height of the can is approximately 35.8 inches.
