tank. Help PLEASE? ? People : here is the link for the diagram : please have a look at it : i need this question for my exam : http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g154/Ashl3yl/maths/Q28.jpg

The framework of a shadecloth shelter which is erected over a right circular cylindrical tank?
in which fish are being bred. The tank has diameter 4 m and depth 1 1/2
m, and is open at the top.
The vertical supporting poles for the framework are 2 m long, and the length of each of the sides of the roof of the
framework is 5 m.

28.1 How many litres of water are in the tank, if it is always kept 2/3
full?
(Leave the answer in terms of ? .)
[Hint: Volume of cylinder = ?r2h where r is the radius and h the height.]

28.2 Suppose that the inside of the tank (including the base) is painted with a waterproof paint that costs R20 per
litre, and 4/5
of a litre is used for every square metre. How much does it cost to paint the tank? (Leave the
answer in terms of ? .)

28.3 Suppose the shelter has shadecloth over the top and around all four sides. How many square meters of
shadecloth must be provided?
28.4 Suppose a bigger tank must be built underneath the same shelter. Two options are considered. For tank 1
the radius of the given tank is increased by 1/2
m; for tank 2 the height of the given tank is increased by 1/2
m.
Which is the better option? Explain your answer.
