The lateral side of a cylinder can be calculated using the formula: Lateral Side Area = circumference of the base x height.

First, we need to find the circumference of the base. Circumference = π x diameter = 3.14 x 5 = 15.7 inches.

Now, plug in the values for circumference and height into the formula: Lateral Side Area = 15.7 x 7.5 = 117.8 square inches.

Therefore, the correct answer is 117.8 square inches.

To find out how much money Margo will have saved after a year of saving 22% of her $2500 paycheck each month, we first need to calculate how much she saves each month.

22% of $2500 = 0.22 x $2500 = $550.

Now, to find out how much she saves in a year, we multiply her monthly savings by 12 (number of months in a year):

$550 x 12 = $6600.

Therefore, Margo will have saved $6,600 after a year of saving.

The correct answer is $6,600.
