Volume of a cylinder = \(πr^2h\) , r - radius & h - height
Qt A
\(r = \frac{y}{2}\) & \(h = 15x\)
\(V = π * \frac{y}{2}^2 * 15x\) = \(\frac{15πxy^2}{4}\) = \(3.75πxy^2\)
Qt B
\(r = 2y\) & \(h = 1x\)
\(V = π * (2y)^2 * 1x\) = \(4πxy^2\)
Qt B > Qt A
Answer B
Qt A
\(r = \frac{y}{2}\) & \(h = 15x\)
\(V = π * \frac{y}{2}^2 * 15x\) = \(\frac{15πxy^2}{4}\) = \(3.75πxy^2\)
Qt B
\(r = 2y\) & \(h = 1x\)
\(V = π * (2y)^2 * 1x\) = \(4πxy^2\)
Qt B > Qt A
Answer B
