Answer:

10.4
\pi square inches for all 5 lipsticks

Explanation:

Let's start with by calculating the wrapping needed for the TUBE area of the lipstick. If you've ever unwrapped a tube (like the wrapper on a bottle of soda), it's a rectangle.

The circumference of the lipstick will be the width of the wrap needed for the TUBE part:

Circumference = 2
\pi r

= 2 * .4 *
\pi

= 0.8
\pi

So now multiply that x 2.2

= 0.8
\pi * 2.2

= 1.76
\pi square inches for 1 lipstick

Now multiply that x 5!

1.76
\pi * 5 = 8.8
\pi square inches for just the tube part for all 5 lipsticks.

Now the top & bottom (circles) of the lipstick, to calc that area =
\pi r^(2) =
\pi .4^(2) = 0.16
\pi for one circle. There are 2 circles (top & bottom) so 0.16 x 2 = 0.32
\pi.

For all 5, 0.32
\pi * 5 = 1.6
\pisquare inches for the top & bottom of all 5 lipsticks.

Now add them up:

8.8 + 1.6 = 10.4
\pi square inches for all 5 lipsticks
