A cylindrical packaged drink has a radius that is half of its height. If the full capacity of the package is 4729π cm3.
Then the ratio of the volume to the cylindrical lateral surface area is...
Formula Analysis
The lateral surface of a cylinder is a rectangle with length 2πr and height t. Thus, the formula for the lateral surface area is LS=2πrt.
We will compare the volume (V=πr2t) to the lateral surface area (LS).
Calculating the Ratio
In the previous question (Number 4), it was determined that the package height t=9 cm. Since r=21t, then r=29.
Substitute the value of r into the ratio equation:
Thus, the ratio is 9:4.
