about how many cubic inches of water does the glass hold?

ANSWER
EXPLANATION
Given that;
The height of the glass is 8in
The radius of the glass is 2.5in
Follow the steps below to find the volume of the glass
Recall, that the shape of the glass is cylindrical
Hence, the volume of a cylinder is given as
[tex]\text{ V = }\pi\times\text{ r}^2\text{ }\times\text{ h}[/tex]Substitute the given data into the formula above
[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{ let }\pi\text{ = 3.14} \\ \text{ V = 3.14 }\times\text{ \lparen2.5\rparen}^2\text{ }\times\text{ 8} \\ \text{ V = 3.14 }\times\text{ 6.25 }\times\text{ 8} \\ \text{ V = 3.14 }\times\text{ 50} \\ \text{ V = 157 in}^3 \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore, the volume of the cylinder is 157 cubic inches
