The solids are similar. Find the volume of solid B. Write your answer in terms of pi.

Two cylinders are shown. The cylinder at the left is labeled Cylinder A, and the radius of the base is labeled 12 inches. At the bottom of the cylinder reads, V equals 4608 pi cubic inches. The cylinder at the right is labeled Cylinder B, and the radius of the base is labeled 15 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

You multiply 15 times 4608

The volume of solid B cylinder is 9000π cubic units.

What is a cylinder?

A cylinder is a 3-D solid figure that has two identical circular bases joined by a curved surface at a fixed distance from the center, that is the height of the cylinder.

For the given situation,

Cylinder A:

Let the radius of cylinder A be r1 = 12 inches

Let the height of cylinder A be h1

The volume of the cylinder A, V1 = 4608 π cubic inches

Cylinder B:

Let the radius of cylinder A be r2 = 15 inches

Let the height of cylinder A be h2

The volume of the cylinder A, V2

The formula of volume of cylinder is

[tex]V=\pi r^{2}h[/tex]

For cylinder A,

⇒ [tex]4608\pi =\pi (12)^{2}h1[/tex]

⇒ [tex]h1=\frac{4608}{144}[/tex]

⇒ [tex]h1=32[/tex]

Cylinder A and cylinder B are similar, so

[tex]\frac{h1}{h2} =\frac{r1}{r2}[/tex]

⇒ [tex]\frac{32}{h2} =\frac{12}{15}[/tex]

⇒ [tex]h2=\frac{(32)(15)}{12}[/tex]

⇒ [tex]h2=40[/tex]

Volume of cylinder B is

⇒ [tex]V=\pi (15)^{2}(40)[/tex]

⇒ [tex]V=9000\pi[/tex]

Hence we can conclude that the volume of solid B cylinder is 9000π cubic units.
