A food company makes regular and tall soup cans. The area of the base of both cans is 5 cm2. The volume of the regular can is 40 cm3. The tall can is 2 cm taller. What is the volume of the tall soup can?

Volume of the can:

V = B · h

The area of the base of both cans is 5 cm²

For the regular can:

40 cm³ = 5 cm² · h

h = 40 : 5

h = 8 cm

The tall can has the height: h = 8 cm + 2 cm = 10 cm.

V t = 5 cm² · 10 cm = 50 cm³

Answer: The volume of the tall soup can is 50 cm³
