Please Help! Dimitri bought a cylindrical clay flowerpot that holds approximately 15 gallons of dry soil (1 gallon ≈ 0.15 cubic feet). The radius of the pot is 9 inches. What is the height of the flowerpot to the nearest tenth of a foot? Show your work.

Step-by-step explanation:

we are given volume and redious

but r is in inches and V is in gallons

so we have to convert V into inches unit

first convert gallon to cubic foot

now convert cubic feet to cubic inches:

now we need a little algebra to figure out h

substitute the value of V and r:

simplify square:

divide both sides by 81:

divide both sides by π:

12 inches = 1 foot

15.3 " =15.3/12

≈1.3 foot

2.56 is the width of the garden
