Question 1
Part A

How much wax does Philip use to make a candle rounded to the nearest cubic inch? Use 3.14 for π.
Enter the correct answer in the box.


Question 2
Part B

Philip spends $0.15 per cubic inch for the wax to make the candles. Approximately how much will it cost him to purchase enough wax to make 14 cylindrical candles?

A) $109.20 dollars


B) $218.40 dollars


C) $325.50 dollars


D) $598.50 dollars

Part A

Using the formula for the volume of a cylinder,


V=\pi r^2 h \approx (3.14)(3^2)(5.5)=\boxed{155.43}

Part B

The total volume of 14 candles is
(155.43)(14)=2176.02 cubic inches.

So, the cost is
(2176.02)(0.15) \approx \boxed{\$325.50}

Part C

Using the formula for the lateral surface area of a cylinder,


2\pi rh=2\pi(3)(5.5)=\boxed{33\pi}
