Janine made a cylindrical vase in which the sum of the lateral area and area of one base was about 3000 square centimeters. The vase had a height of 50 centimeters. Find the radius of the vase. Explain the method you would use to find the radius.

this one?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

aright, let me see.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2(pi)r*50+(pi)r^2 = 3000

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the left term is the lateral area: 2pi*r*h the middle term is the area of the base

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so i solve for r?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2π x r x 50 = 3000 (solve for r), 100π x r = 3000, π x r = 30, r = 9.55 or 10 cm.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh r is the radius duh omg

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait is the answer 10cm?
