PLEASE ANYONE HELP IVE been struggling to answer this question for 45 minutes

A cylinder has a surface area of 588 ( pi symbol). If the radius of the cylinder is twice the height, find the radius and height measurements. Round to 2 decimals if necessary.

Answer:

[tex][/tex] Let the radius of the cylinder be r and the height be h.

Given that the surface area of the cylinder is 588π, we can write the formula for the surface area of a cylinder as:

2πrh + 2πr² = 588π

Since the radius is twice the height, we can write:

r = 2h

Substitute r = 2h into the surface area formula:

2π(2h)h + 2π(2h)² = 588π

4πh² + 8πh² = 588π

12πh² = 588π

h² = 49

h = [tex] \sqrt49[/tex]

h = 7

Now, substitute h = 7 back into r = 2h:

r = 2(7)

r = 14

Therefore, the radius of the cylinder is 14 units and the height is 7 units.
