Two containers designed to hold water are side by side, both in the shape of a
cylinder. Container A has a radius of 6 feet and a height of 15 feet. Container B has a
radius of 5 feet and a height of 18 feet. Container A is full of water and the water is
pumped into Container B until Conainter B is completely full.
After the pumping is complete, what is the volume of the empty space inside
Container A, to the nearest tenth of a cubic foot?

Respuesta :

Answer:

  1413.7 ft^3

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cylinder is given by ...

  V = πr^2·h

After emptying part of container A into container B, the empty space in container A will be exactly the volume of container B:

  V = π(5 ft)^2·(18 ft) ≈ 1413.7 ft^3
