Answer:

<h2><em>$23.5</em></h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Gene is playing a game with a bag of marbles. If 3 of the marbles are blue, 4 are green, and 7 are yellow and awarded prices for the marbles are $2 green $0.5 yellow $4 blue, the expected payout for Gens game is expressed as shown;

If a blue marble costs $4, 3 blue marbles will cost 3*$4 = $12

If a green marble costs $2, 4 green marbles will cost 4*$2 = $8.0

If a yellow marble costs $0.5, 7 yellow marbles will cost 7*$0.5 = $3.5

Total payout for Gene's game will be the equivalent to $12+ $8 + $3.5 = $23.5.

<em>Hence Gene expected cost will be $21.5</em>

Answer: It represents the area of the two circular sides ("lids")

Explanation:

Imagine you made a cylinder out of 3 pieces of paper. The cylinder can be decomposed into two circular shapes (radius r) and one rectangular piece with two side lengths: one is "h", the other has to be long enough to go around each of the disks, so it has to be 2*pi*r long.

So the term 2*pi*r*h is the area of the rectangular piece and pi*r^2 is the area of each of the "lids" Since there are two of those, the term 2*pi*r^2 represents the area of the bottom and top lids.
