Respuesta :

Answer:

The volume of can A is half the volume of can B.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Can A and Can B

Required

The true statement

For Can A, we have:

[tex]h =8[/tex]

[tex]r = 0.5[/tex]

The volume is:

[tex]Volume = \pi r^2h[/tex]

This gives:

[tex]V_A = \pi * 0.5^2 * 8[/tex]

[tex]V_A = \pi * 2[/tex]

[tex]V_A = 2\pi[/tex]

For Can B, we have:

[tex]h =4[/tex]

[tex]r = 1[/tex]

The volume is:

[tex]Volume = \pi r^2h[/tex]

This gives:

[tex]V_B = \pi * 1^2 * 4[/tex]

[tex]V_B = \pi * 4[/tex]

[tex]V_B = 4\pi[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]V_A = 2\pi[/tex]

[tex]V_B = 4\pi[/tex]

By comparison, (d) is correct
