Answer:
The tank can hold 4110.26 gallons of water.
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to solve this question we need to compute the volume of this tank, the volume is given by:
V = (area of the base)*height
Since the base is circullar, it is given by:
area of the base = pi*r^2
So we have:
V = height*pi*r^2
The radius of circle is the diameter divided by 2, so in this case r = 10/2 = 5 ft. We can now use the values on the equations:
V = 7*3.14*(5)^2 = 549.5 ft^3
Since each cubic foot holds 7.48 gallons of water the volume in gallons is:
V = 549.5*7.48 = 4110.26 gallons
The tank can hold 4110.26 gallons of water.
