Answer 1

Data:
r (radius) = 3.5 in
h (height) = 8 in
Adopt: $\pi \approx3.14$
V (volume) = ?
Ink cost per cubic inch = $0.05/in³
Total cost: ?

Calculate the volume of the paint bucket (its formed being cylindrical), we have:
$V = \pi *r^2*h$ 
$V = 3.14 *3.5^2*8$ 
$V = 3.14*12.25*8$
$\boxed{V = 307.72\:in^3}$

What was the total cost of the paint?

price($)___measure(in³)
0.05 ---------- 1
y -------------- 307.72

It is made the rule of three: (directly proportional)

$\frac{0.05}{y} = \frac{1}{307.72}$
multiply cross
$1*y = 0.05*307.72$
$y = 15.386\:\to\:\boxed{\boxed{y\approx\ 15}}\end{array}}\qquad\quad\checkmark$

Answer:
the total cost of the paint is $15
