<span>8 - 2b = -2/3(12b + 6)
8 - 2b = -8b -4
8 + 4 = -8b + 2b
12 = -6b
b = -12/6
b = -2
So, your final answer is b = -2</span>
The amount of metal used to make the can = surface area of cylindrical can, which is: D. 42π in².
<h3>What is the Surface Area of a Cylinder?</h3>
A can is a cylinder.
Surface area of a cylinder = 2πrh + 2πr²
Thus:
Amount of metal used to make the can = surface area of the can
r = 6/2 = 3 in.
h = 4 in.
Therefore:
Surface area = 2×π×3×4 + 2×π×3²
Surface area = 24π + 18π
Surface area = 42π in².
