Problema Solution
A can of beans has surface area 304cm^2. Its height is 17 cm. What is the radius of the circular top? The radious of the circular to is ? cm
(Do not round until final answer. Then round to the nearest hunderdth as needed)
Answer provided by our tutors
The radius is R
So
2pi*R^2 + 2pi*R*H = S
2piR(R+H) = S
2*3.14*R(R+17)=304
So
R = 2.48 cm
So the radious of the circular to is 2.48 cm
