carol is designing an oatmeal container. her first design is a rectangular prism with a height of 12 inches, a width of 8 inches, and a depth of 3 inches.
a. what is the total surface area of the container to the nearest square inch? use 3.14 for .
b. carol wants to redesign the package as a cylinder with the same total surface area as the prism in part α. if the radius of the cylinder is 2 inches, what is the height of the cylinder? round your answer to the nearest inch. use 3.14 for .

c. y = 1/4 x + 5

step-by-step explanation:

first, put the equation of the line on the graph into slope-intercept form

(y = mx + b):   y = -4x + 8

second, a perpendicular line has to have "an opposite/reciprocal slope" to the original slope. so, find the "m" value in your original equation (it's -4, right? )

original slope: m = -4   perpendicular slope: change the sign to its opposite and find the reciprocal ("flip" the number)

new slope is now positive (b/c the original slope was negative 4), and it's 1/4 (not the original slope of 4 or 4/1)
