Volume is L x W x H. Since the three dimensions are all multiplied by each other it doesn't matter the order.
This means the answer would be D.
61.23 square inches of metal is needed to create a cylindrical can.
Solution:
Diameter of the base = 3 in
Radius of the base = 3 ÷ 2 = 1.5 in
Height of the cylinder = 5 in
The value of π = 3.14
<u>To find the surface area of the cylinder:</u>
Surface area of the cylinder =
= 2 × 3.14 × (1.5)² + 2 × 3.14 × 1.5 × 5
= 14.13 + 47.1
Surface area of the cylinder = 61.23 sq. in
Hence 61.23 square inches of metal is needed to create a cylindrical can.
The answer to your problem is x=26
You need to simplify it
lets start with your orgininal equation here:
-5+3x=10
Now lets try and get "x" alone. we will do this by adding 5 to both sides.
-5+3x=10
+5 +5
3x=15
Now we have 3 times "x" equals 15
The next step would be to divide both sides by 3 in order to get "x" alone.
3x=15
x=15/3
x=5
