  1. The formula for the total surface area \( A \) of a cylinder is given by: \[ A = 2\pi r(h + r) \] where \( r \) is the radius and \( h \) is the height of the cylinder.

  2. To find the surface area of a cylinder with a radius of 4 cm and a height of 2 cm using \( \pi \approx 3.14 \):

\[ A = 2\pi r(h + r) = 2 \times 3.14 \times 4(2 + 4) = 2 \times 3.14 \times 4 \times 6 \] \[ = 2 \times 3.14 \times 24 = 150.72 \] The surface area is approximately 150.7 square centimeters.

  1. For a cylinder with a diameter of 12 inches, the radius \( r \) is half of the diameter: \[ r = \frac{12}{2} = 6 \text{ inches} \] The height \( h \) is 10 inches. Using the formula for surface area: \[ A = 2\pi r(h + r) = 2 \times 3.14 \times 6(10 + 6) = 2 \times 3.14 \times 6 \times 16 \] \[ = 2 \times 3.14 \times 96 = 602.88 \] The surface area is approximately 602.9 in².

  2. The total surface area needed to cover the sides and top of a cylinder cake with a radius of 5 inches and a height of 7 inches is given by the lateral area of the side plus the area of the top:

\[ \text{Lateral Area} = 2\pi rh = 2 \times 3.14 \times 5 \times 7 \] \[ = 2 \times 3.14 \times 35 = 219.8 \] \[ \text{Area of the top} = \pi r^2 = 3.14 \times (5^2) = 3.14 \times 25 = 78.5 \] Adding these two areas together: \[ A = 219.8 + 78.5 = 298.3 \] So, the amount of icing needed is approximately 298.3 square inches.

  1. For the silo with a radius of 4 feet and a height of 30 feet, only the lateral surface area needs to be calculated since the top and bottom are not being refinished: \[ \text{Lateral Area} = 2\pi rh = 2 \times 3.14 \times 4 \times 30 \] \[ = 2 \times 3.14 \times 120 = 752.8 \] So, the amount of aluminum needed is approximately 752.8 square feet.
why did you get EVERYTHING wrong?!?!

I apologize for any mistakes in my calculations. Let’s go through each question step-by-step to ensure accuracy.

  1. Surface Area Formula: The correct formula for the total surface area \( A \) of a cylinder is: \[ A = 2\pi r(h + r) \] or alternatively, \[ A = 2\pi rh + 2\pi r^2 \] (where \( r \) is the radius and \( h \) is the height).

  2. Surface Area of a Cylinder with Radius 4 cm and Height 2 cm: \[ A = 2\pi r(h + r) = 2 \times 3.14 \times 4(2 + 4) \] \[ = 2 \times 3.14 \times 4 \times 6 \] \[ = 2 \times 3.14 \times 24 = 150.72 \] The surface area is approximately 150.7 square centimeters.

  3. Surface Area of a Cylinder with Diameter 12 inches (Radius 6 inches) and Height 10 inches: \[ A = 2\pi r(h + r) = 2 \times 3.14 \times 6 (10 + 6) \] \[ = 2 \times 3.14 \times 6 \times 16 \] \[ = 2 \times 3.14 \times 96 = 602.88 \] The surface area is approximately 602.9 square inches.

  4. Surface Area of a Cylinder Cake with Radius 5 inches and Height 7 inches (Top and Sides Only):

    • Lateral Surface Area: \[ \text{Lateral Area} = 2\pi rh = 2 \times 3.14 \times 5 \times 7 \] \[ = 2 \times 3.14 \times 35 = 219.8 \]

    • Area of the Top: \[ \text{Area of the top} = \pi r^2 = 3.14 \times 25 = 78.5 \]

    Adding these two areas together: \[ A = 219.8 + 78.5 = 298.3 \] The amount of icing needed is approximately 298.3 square inches.

  5. Surface Area of a Silo with Radius 4 feet and Height 30 feet (No Top or Bottom): \[ \text{Lateral Area} = 2\pi rh = 2 \times 3.14 \times 4 \times 30 \] \[ = 2 \times 3.14 \times 120 = 752.8 \] The amount of aluminum needed is approximately 752.8 square feet.

3. 602.88
4. 298.3
5. 753.6

I apologize for the oversight and any errors. Let's clarify the correct formula and calculations based on your feedback:

  1. Surface Area Formula: The formula for the total surface area of a cylinder is indeed: \[ A = 2\pi r^2 + 2\pi rh \]

  2. Surface Area of a Cylinder with Radius 4 cm and Height 2 cm: \[ A = 2\pi r^2 + 2\pi rh = 2\pi(4^2) + 2\pi(4)(2) \] \[ = 2\pi(16) + 2\pi(8) \] \[ = 32\pi + 16\pi = 48\pi \] Using \( \pi \approx 3.14 \): \[ 48 \times 3.14 = 150.72 , \text{cm}^2 \] Your calculation is correct: 150.72 square centimeters.

  3. Surface Area of a Cylinder with Diameter 12 inches and Height 10 inches (Radius 6 inches): \[ A = 2\pi r^2 + 2\pi rh = 2\pi(6^2) + 2\pi(6)(10) \] \[ = 2\pi(36) + 2\pi(60) \] \[ = 72\pi + 120\pi = 192\pi \] Using \( \pi \approx 3.14 \): \[ 192 \times 3.14 = 602.88 , \text{in}^2 \] Your calculation is correct: 602.88 in².

  4. Surface Area of a Cylinder Cake with Radius 5 inches and Height 7 inches (Sides and Top): \[ A = 2\pi r^2 + 2\pi rh \]

    • Lateral Area: \( 2\pi rh \) \[ = 2\pi(5)(7) = 70\pi \]
    • Top Area: \( \pi r^2 \) \[ = \pi(5^2) = 25\pi \]

    Adding both: \[ Total = 70\pi + 25\pi = 95\pi \] Using \( \pi \approx 3.14 \): \[ 95 \times 3.14 = 298.3 , \text{square inches} \] Your calculation is correct: 298.3 square inches.

  5. Surface Area of a Silo with Radius 4 feet and Height 30 feet (No Top or Bottom): \[ A = 2\pi rh = 2\pi(4)(30) = 240\pi \] Using \( \pi \approx 3.14 \): \[ 240 \times 3.14 = 753.6 , \text{square feet} \] Your calculation is correct: 753.6 square feet.

Thank you for your patience, and I appreciate your corrections! If you have any further questions or need more assistance, feel free to ask!

Answer: 94.2 square inches

Let's verify each calculation step by step.

  1. Surface Area of a Cylinder with Radius 5 inches and Height 10 inches:

    • Using the formula \( A = 2\pi r^2 + 2\pi rh \): \[ A = 2\pi(5^2) + 2\pi(5)(10) = 2\pi(25) + 2\pi(50) = 50\pi + 100\pi = 150\pi \] Using \( \pi \approx 3.14 \): \[ A \approx 150 \times 3.14 = 471 \text{ square inches} \] Your answer is correct: 471 square inches.
  2. Surface Area of a Cylinder with Height 8 yards and Radius 7 yards:

    • Again using the formula: \[ A = 2\pi(7^2) + 2\pi(7)(8) \] \[ = 2\pi(49) + 2\pi(56) = 98\pi + 112\pi = 210\pi \] Using \( \pi \approx 3.14 \): \[ A \approx 210 \times 3.14 = 659.4 \text{ square yards} \] If you're referring to a different value or context for the dimensions, please verify the stated dimensions.
  3. Surface Area of a Cylinder with Height 3 yards and Radius 2 yards:

    • Using the formula: \[ A = 2\pi(2^2) + 2\pi(2)(3) \] \[ = 2\pi(4) + 2\pi(6) = 8\pi + 12\pi = 20\pi \] Using \( \pi \approx 3.14 \): \[ A \approx 20 \times 3.14 = 62.8 \text{ square yards} \] This seems to differ from your answer of 25.12 square yards.
  4. Surface Area of a Can of Olives (Diameter 6 inches, Height 4 inches):

    • Radius is \( r = \frac{6}{2} = 3 \) inches.
    • Using the formula: \[ A = 2\pi(3^2) + 2\pi(3)(4) \] \[ = 2\pi(9) + 2\pi(12) = 18\pi + 24\pi = 42\pi \] Using \( \pi \approx 3.14 \): \[ A \approx 42 \times 3.14 = 131.88 \text{ square inches} \] This differs from the stated answer of 75.36 square inches.
  5. Surface Area of a Wheel of Cheese (Diameter 6 inches, Height 2 inches):

    • Radius is \( r = \frac{6}{2} = 3 \) inches.
    • Using the formula: \[ A = 2\pi(3^2) + 2\pi(3)(2) \] \[ = 2\pi(9) + 2\pi(6) = 18\pi + 12\pi = 30\pi \] Using \( \pi \approx 3.14 \): \[ A \approx 30 \times 3.14 = 94.2 \text{ square inches} \] Your answer is correct: 94.2 square inches.

Summary of Results:

  1. Correct: 471 square inches
  2. Not matching, should be: 659.4 square yards
  3. Not matching, should be: 62.8 square yards
  4. Not matching, should be: 131.88 square inches
  5. Correct: 94.2 square inches
