A can of tomato soup is 4 1/4 inches tall and has a diameter of 3 inches. The company that makes the cans uses sheets of metal that are 1000in^2.
1.How many whole cans can the company make out of each sheet of metal?

2. Will there be any metal left over? If so how much?

a) 21 cans

b) 10.83 square inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

The cans are cylinders of 4 and 1/4 inches tall (or 4.25 in)

and the diameter is 3 inches.

The surface of a cylinder is equal to:

S = pi*r^2 + h*2*pi*r

where r is the radius, half of the diameter, so we have that r = 3in/2 = 1.5 in.

h is the height, h = 4.25 in

pi = 3.14

Then the surface needed for a can is:

S = 3.14*1.5^2 + 4.25*2*3.14*1.5 = 47.1 square inches.

if the sheet is 1000 in^2, we can make an amount of:

N = 1000/47.1 = 21.23  

but we can not do a 0.23 of a can, so we need to round down.

A) we can make 21 cans out of a sheet of metal.

B) the 0.23 of a can that we removed earlier is the amount of metal leftover. The total is 0.23*47.1 in^2 = 10.83 in^2

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine the amount of metal needed to make each can, we would determine the total surface area of each can. Since the cans are cylindrical, the formula for determining the total surface area of a cylinder is used. It is expressed as

Total surface area = πr² + 2πr

r = radius of the can

h = height of the can

π = 3.14

From information given,

Diameter = 4.25 inches

Radius = diameter/2 = 4.25/2 = 2.125 inches

Total surface area = 3.14 × 2.125² + 2 × 3.14 × 2.125 = 27.5 in²

1) since 1000 in² sheet material is available, the number of cans that can be made is

1000/27.5240625 = 36 cans

2) The amount of metal sheet left is

1000 - (36 × 27.5) = 10 in²

the transverse axis of a hyperbola is the line that contains the two vertices and the two focuses.

in this example (hyperbola of equation x^2/2 - y^2/4 = 1), the transverse axis is the  x-axis  .
