A cylindrical diesel fuel holding tank has a radius of 6 feet and a length of 12 feet. What is the maximum volume of fuel the tank can hold? (to nearest whole number)

Respuesta :

Answer: 1356 cubic feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of cylinder is given by :_

[tex]Volume = \pi r^2l[/tex], where r is the radius and l is the length of the cylinder.

Given : A cylindrical diesel fuel holding tank has a radius of r= 6 feet and a length of l=12 feet.

Therefore,

[tex]Volume=\pi (6)^2(12)\\\Rightarrow\ Volume=3.14\times(36)(12)=1356.48\approx1356[/tex]

Hence, the volume of cylindrical diesel fuel holding tank =1356 cubic feet

Therefore, the  maximum volume of fuel the tank can hold 1356 cubic feet.
