Answer 1

I just took the test with that question it is that hopefully it helps 


A 565 cm 

Answer 2

Answer:

Ok the answer is 565 but I'm going to break it down for those who wanna know how

Step-by-step explanation:

So first let's just assume the jar is a cylinder which means to use the formula

$V=\pi r^{2} h$

They saved you time of having to finf the Radius and such

firstly, we're gonna solve before she eats all that salsa lol

r = 6

h = 11

we're gonna substitute 3.14 for pi

of course you'll solve for it which you'll get

v = 1243.44

now you need to find the volume after she eats the salsa which the only difference is that the height will be 6 instead of 11

substitute

solve and you'll get

678.24

now that you have the volume of before and after she eats the salsa all you need to do is subtract to find the difference

1243.44 - 678.24

which you'll get

565!

Hope this helps!
