Suppose a coffee cup has a diameter of 8 cm and a height of 9 cm. What is the volume of the cup? (to nearest whole number)

Verified Answer :

What I got, rounded to the nearest whole number, is 452 cm. for the volume.
Formula: piradius squaredheight

Answer:

\(452\ cm^{3}\)

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

the volume of a cylinder (coffe cup) is equal to

\(V=\pi r^{2} h\)

we have

\(r=8/2=4\ cm\) -----> the radius is half the diameter

\(h=9\ cm\)

substitute

\(V=\pi (4^{2})(9)=452.4\ cm^{3}\)

Round to the nearest whole number

\(452.4\ cm^{3}=452\ cm^{3}\)
