Question

A jar of mayonnaise is shaped like a cylinder. The radius of the jar is 1.5 in. and its height is 7 in. The mayonnaise is on sale for $0.08 per in3.

What is the cost of the jar of mayonnaise? Use 3.14 to approximate pi.

Answer 1

well notice the mayonnaise container is a cylinder
we know its "r"adius, 1.5in
and its "h"eight, 7in

so how many \(in^3\) does its volume have?
well, let us find its value \(\bf \textit{volume of a cylinder}=\pi r^2 h\qquad r=radius\qquad h=height\)

once you found the volume, or how many \(in^3\) it has
multiply it by the pricer per \(in^3\)
