Answer

$V=648\pi \approx 2035.75 \text{ cubic inches}$ $\text{surface area} = 306\pi \approx 961.33 \text{ square inches}$

Work Step by Step

RECALL: (1) The surface area of a right circular cylinder with radius $r$ and height $h$ is given by the formula: $\text{surface area} = 2\pi{r^2}+2\pi{rh}$ (2) The volume $V$ of a right circular cylinder with radius $r$ and height $h$ is given by the formula: $V = \pi{r^2}h$ The right circular cylinder has radius = 9 inches height = 8 inches Use the formulas and given measurements above to obtain: $V=\pi{r^2h} \\V=\pi(9^2)(8) \\V=\pi(81)(8) \\V=648\pi \approx 2035.75 \text{ cubic inches}$ $\text{surface area} = 2\pi{r^2}+2\pi{rh} \\\text{surface area} = 2\pi(9^2)+2\pi(9)(8) \\\text{surface area} = 2\pi(81) +144\pi \\\text{surface area} = 162\pi +144\pi \\\text{surface area} = 306\pi \approx 961.33 \text{ square inches}$
