(Rounded to the nearest dollar 80)

Explanation:

Surface area of Cylinder:

Circle:

π
r^(2)=

1π = π

so since there are 2 circles it is 2π

Rectangle:

length*width=

3*Circumference

3*(2π)=

Add them all together:

2π + 6π = 8π

≈ 8*3.14

so the answer is approximately 79.82

Hope this helps :)
