<PRE><B>Question 943613</B>
A soup can that is a cylinder has a radius of 2x- 1 and a height of 3x. What is
 the surface area of the soup can? Show your work.
-------
Formula:: SA = circumference*height
-----
Your Problem::
SA = (pi*2(2x-1))*3x
------
SA = (4x-2)(3x)pi
------
SA = (12x^2-6x)pi sq. units
