The correct Answer is:
To find the height of the right circular cylinder whose volume is given as \( 25 \frac{1}{7} \, \text{cm}^3 \) and where the height is equal to the radius, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Convert the mixed fraction to an improper fraction**: \[ 25 \frac{1}{7} = \frac{25 \times 7 + 1}{7} = \frac{175 + 1}{7} = \frac{176}{7} \, \text{cm}^3 \] 2. **Use the formula for the volume of a cylinder**: The formula for the volume \( V \) of a cylinder is given by: \[ V = \pi r^2 h \] Since the height \( h \) is equal to the radius \( r \), we can write: \[ h = r \] Therefore, substituting \( h \) with \( r \): \[ V = \pi r^2 r = \pi r^3 \] 3. **Substitute the values into the volume formula**: Given \( V = \frac{176}{7} \) and \( \pi = \frac{22}{7} \): \[ \frac{176}{7} = \frac{22}{7} r^3 \] 4. **Eliminate the fraction by multiplying both sides by 7**: \[ 176 = 22 r^3 \] 5. **Solve for \( r^3 \)**: Divide both sides by 22: \[ r^3 = \frac{176}{22} \] Simplifying \( \frac{176}{22} \): \[ r^3 = 8 \] 6. **Find the cube root of \( r^3 \)**: \[ r = \sqrt[3]{8} = 2 \, \text{cm} \] 7. **Since height \( h \) is equal to radius \( r \)**: \[ h = r = 2 \, \text{cm} \] ### Final Answer: The height of the cylinder is \( 2 \, \text{cm} \). ---
