Alice purchased paint in a bucket with a radius of 9 in. and a height of 9.5 in. The paint cost $0.09 per in3. What was the total cost of the paint, rounded to the nearest cent? Use 3.14 to approximate pi. $ ???

@Mehek14 sorry I keep tagging you but you're so helpful XD

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You need to find the volume first, then use totalcost=cost/\inc3×volume to find th evolume, use V=πr2h

OpenStudy (twizttiez):

Sorry I'm not really good at reading formulas can you make it more simple XD

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so in your case, r=9, h=9.5, cost/inch3=0.09. rest should be easy

OpenStudy (twizttiez):

So would I do 9*9.5?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i would believe so

OpenStudy (twizttiez):

Okay so I got 85.5 then I multiplied that by 0.09 and got 7.695 and I rounded it to 7 would that be correct @Siri15 @Mehek14

Mehek (mehek14):

Here's what I got: π x \(9^2\) x 9.5 = 2416.23 0.09 x 2416.23 = 217.46 @Siri15 you just copy pasted from another post -_-

OpenStudy (twizttiez):

Oh o.o

OpenStudy (twizttiez):

So my answer is 217.46? rounded?
