Answer:
The volume of the water in the pool is 1,017 cubic feet
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The volume of a cylinder is equal to
[tex]V=\pi r^{2} h[/tex]
we have
[tex]r=18/2=9\ ft[/tex] ----> the radius is half the diameter
Remember that
[tex]1\ ft=12\ in[/tex]
so
[tex]6\ in=6/12=0.5\ ft[/tex]
To find out the height of the water, subtract 0.5 feet from the height of the swimming pool
[tex]h=4.5-0.5=4\ ft[/tex]
assume
[tex]\pi =3.14[/tex]
Find the volume of the water
[tex]V=(3.14)(9^{2})(4)[/tex]
[tex]V=1,017\ ft^3[/tex]
