Brad has a cylindrical barrel with radius 10 inches and height 15 inches. He wants to fill it from a well, using a bucket in the shape of a hemisphere with a radius of 10 inches. How many trips must Brad make to the well in order to fill the barrel?
+321 First, we want to find the volume of the barrel. The formula for the volume of a cylinder is h* π * r^2. Substituting 15 in for h and 10 in for r, we get that the volume of the barrel is 1500π. Now, we must find the area fo the bucket. The formula for the volume of a hermisphere is (2/3)* π * r^3. Substituting 10 in for r, we get that the volume of the bucket is 2000/3π. We divide 1500π by 2000/3π to get 9/4, but Brad can't make 1/4 of a trip to the well and get water, so the answer is 3 trips.
