    A good combination will be equal to or greater than 80 ft³. Example

    r = 3 ft

    h = 5 ft

    volume = πr²h

    volume = 3.14 * 9 * 5 = 3.14 * 45 = 141.3 ft³ is a good combination of radius and height.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The volume of a cylinder = πr²h

    Jeff is planning on building a cylindrical water tank that has a capacity of no less than 80 ft³. This means he want the volume of the cylindrical tank to be equal to or greater than 80 ft³ (volume ≥ 80 ft³). The combinations of radius and height should be equal to or greater than 80 ft³ when they are inserted in the volume formula of a cylindrical water tank.

    For example

    volume = πr²h

    r = 2 ft

    h = 5 ft

    volume = πr²h

    volume = 3.14 * 2² * 5 = 62.8 ft³ is not a good combination of base radius and height because the volume is less than 80 ft³.

    A good combination will be equal to or greater than 80 ft³. Example

    r = 3 ft

    h = 5 ft

    volume = πr²h

    volume = 3.14 * 9 * 5 = 3.14 * 45 = 141.3 ft³ is a good combination of radius and height.
