A cylindrical container of disinfectant wipes with a radius of 1 inch and a height of 10 inches is sold for $3. A two-pack of disinfectant wipes each with the same dimensions is sold for $5. What is the difference in price per cubic inch?
a. $0.01
b. $0.02
c. $0.00
d. $0.09

Answer:

b. $0.02[tex]/in^3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]r =1in[/tex]

[tex]h = 10in[/tex]

[tex]Cost_{1pk} =\$3[/tex]

[tex]Cost_{2pk} =\$5[/tex]

Required

The difference in the price per [tex]in^3[/tex]

First, calculate the volume (V) of the cylinder

[tex]V = \pi r^2h[/tex]

[tex]V = 3.14 *1^2 * 10[/tex]

[tex]V = 31.4[/tex]

The unit cost of 1 pack is:

[tex]Unit_{1pk} = \frac{Cost_{1pk}}{V}[/tex]

[tex]Unit_{1pk} = \frac{\$3}{31.4in^3}[/tex]

The unit cost of 2 packs is:

[tex]Unit_{2pk} = \frac{Cost_{2pk}}{2*V}[/tex]

[tex]Unit_{2pk} = \frac{\$5}{2*31.4}[/tex]

[tex]Unit_{2pk} = \frac{\$5}{62.8in^3}[/tex]

The difference (d) is:

[tex]d = |Unit_{2pk} - Unit_{2pk}|[/tex]

[tex]d = \frac{\$3}{31.4in^3} - \frac{\$5}{62.8in^3}[/tex]

Take LCM

[tex]d = \frac{\$6 - \$5}{62.8in^3}[/tex]

[tex]d = \frac{\$1}{62.8in^3}[/tex]

[tex]d = \$0.0159/in^3[/tex]

Approximate

[tex]d = \$0.02/in^3[/tex]
