a. Volume= 5x18
b. Volume= pi (5) (18)
c. Volume= pi (18)squared (5)
d. Volume= pi (5)squared (18)

Hello!

The formula for finding the volume of a cylinder is [tex]V = \pi r ^{2}h[/tex]. The answer choice that matches this is answer choice D. Hope I helped! :3

Answer:

Option D is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given,

Height of the candles, h  = 18 inches

Radius of the candles, r = 5 inches

Candles are in shape of cylinder.

We have to find correct representation of volume of candle.

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

Volume of candle = ]tex]\pi (5)^2\times18[/tex]

Therefore, Option D is correct.
