Answer:
Option C is correct
Volume of coffee in the thermos is, 150.8 cubic inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Volume of the cylinder is given by:
[tex]V =\pi r^2h[/tex]
Where
V is the volume of the cylinder
r is the radius
h is the height of the cylinder respectively
As per the statement:
A thermos in the shape of a cylinder is filled with coffee.
the height of the cylinder is 12 inches and its radius is 2 inches
⇒ h = 12 inches and r = 2 inches.
Substitute the given values and use [tex]\pi = 3.14[/tex] in [1]
then;
[tex]V =3.14 \cdot 2^2 \cdot 12[/tex]
[tex]V =3.14 \cdot 48[/tex]
Simplify:
V ≈150.8 inches.
Therefore, the volume of coffee in the thermos is, 150.8 cubic inches
