Question

Russell is filling a cylinder-shaped swimming pool that has a diameter of 20 feet. He fills it with water to a depth of 3 feet. What is the volume of the water in the pool, to the nearest cubic foot

Answer 1

Answer:$V=942.6\ ft^3$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Diameter of swimming pool is $d=20\ ft\quad \quad (\text{radius}\ r=10\ ft)$

Russell fills it to a depth of $h=3\ ft$

If the pool is in the shape of cylinder then its volume is given by

$V=\pi \times r^2\times h$

$V=\pi \times (10)^2\times 3$

$V=942.6\ ft^3$
