Answer:

  228 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cylinder of radius r and height h is given by ...

  V = πr²·h

Filling in the given information, we can solve for r:

  235.5 = π·r²·12

  √(235.5/(12π)) = r ≈ 2.49937 . . . . cm

The area of a cylinder is given by ...

  A = 2πr² + 2πrh = 2πr(r +h)

Filling in the radius and height, we can find the area to be ...

  A = 2π·2.49937·(2.49937 +12) ≈ 227.698 . . . . cm²

About 228 cm² of aluminum are required to make a typical soda can.

a rectangular block is such that the sides of its base are of the length x cm and 3x cm. The sum of all the lengths of all its e
Xelga [282]

Answer:

15x^2 - 12x^3

Step-by-step explanation:

A rectangular block has 3 parts that play into its volume.  length, width and height.  The question gives us length and width in the form of x and 3x, so height is what's missing.

It gives us a bit more information saying the sum of its edges is 20.  We also have to ask how many lengths, widths and heights are there.  That may be a bit hard to understand, but  is you are looking at a block I could ask how many edges are vertical, just going up and down.  These would be the heights.  There are 4 total, and this goes the same for length and width, so 4*length + 4*width and 4*height = 20.  

Taking that and plugging in x for length and 3x for width (or you could do it the other way around, it doesn't matter, you get:

4*x + 4*3x + 4*height = 20

4x + 12x + 4h = 20

16x + 4h = 20

4h = 20 - 16x

h = 5 - 4x

Now we have h in terms of x, which lets us easily find the volume just knowing x.  To find the volume of a rectangular block you just multiply the length, width and height.

x*3x*(5-4x)

3x^2(5-4x)

15x^2 - 12x^3

Question doesn't give a specific value for x at all so you should be done there.  Any number you plug in for x should get you the right answer

combine like terms
1=(2/2)
(1/2)+(2/2)= 3/2
78=3/2x-6
Add 6 to both sides
84=3/2x
Divide by (3/2)
x=$56=adult ticket
Child ticket = x-6=56-6=$50
