A half filled cylindrical water tank has a water level of 20 feet high. The tank can hold 6000 cubic feet of water. Find the diameter of the tank in feet to the nearest tenth
Answer:
13.8 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
derive the formula from V = πr²h into r = √V/ πh
r = √ 6000 ft³/(3.14) (20feet × 2)
r = √ 6000 ft³ / 125.6 ft
r = √47.7707 ft²
r = 6.91164 ft
diameter is twice the value of radius therefore multiply the radius by two.
d = 2 × r
d = 2 × 6.91164 ft
d = 13.8233 ft ≈ 13.8 ft
