The cylinder shown has a lateral surface area of about 750 square inches. Which answer is closest to the measure of the cylinder's radius? Use 3.14 to approximate pi.

r ≈ 2.39 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

I think your question is missed of key information of the height, allow me to add in and hope it will fit the original one.  

The cylinder shown has a lateral surface area of about 750 square inches. Which answer is closest to the measure of the cylinder's radius? Use 3.14 to approximate pi. the height being 50 inches.

My

Given that the lateral surface area of about 750 square inches and its height is 50 inches.

We have the formula ti find the surface area of the cylinder is:

S = h(2πr)

<=> 750 = 50*2*3.14*r

<=> r ≈ 2.39 inches.

Hope it will find you well.
