Help with what??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

whats up?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So, youre finding the volume of a rectangle and a circle

OpenStudy (anonymous):

for the circle you need to find the circumference and multiply by the height the circumference is \[2pir\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

since they give you the diameter you need to divide the diameter by two to get the radius

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[2\pi(3.5)(2)\] should be your equation

OpenStudy (anonymous):

once you solve that you will have the volume of the round cake

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the rectangular cake is just length x width x height, so 6x9x2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

compare your two answers to figure out the answer to part 1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

43.982297 is the first answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

108 is the second answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so the rectangular cake has a larger volume

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

now for part 2 you need to find the surface area

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ill start with the rectangle; the top of the cake has an area of 6x9, since the sides are the same for opposite sides we only need 2 equations, 2x2x9 and 2x2x6

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then just add them all together for the surface area

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so add up 2x2x9 and 2x2x6 and than i have my answer?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i got 60
