Lets just simply solve:-

Days:-   1         2          3        4          5         6         7                                     
           1.39 + 0.50 + 0.50 + 0.50 + 0.50 + 0.50 + 0.50 = Cost to rent a movie for 7 days. 

 1.39 + 0.50 + 0.50 + 0.50 + 0.50 + 0.50 + 0.50 =  4.39

So, to rent a movie for 7 days it would cost $4.39.

calculate the volume of a cylinder whose height is (2x-5) inches and whose base has a radius of (x-5) inches round your answer to the nearest tenth of a cubic inch

Answers

v=(1/3)hpir^2
aprox pi to 3.14 fo this problem
v=(1/3)(2x-5)(3.14)(x-5)^2
v=(1/3)(2x-5)(3.14)(x^2-10x+25)
v=(1/3)(3.14)(2x^3-25x^2+100x-125)
v=(1/3)(6.28x^(3)-78.5x^(2)+314x-392.5)
v=(6.28x^(3)-78.5x^(2)+314x-392.5)/(3)
and since we don't know what x,height, or radius or diameter or surface area or anything about the cylinder, we can't solve

The right answer for the question that is being asked and shown above is that: 

This can be answered using the Pythagorean Theorem.
h2 = a2 + b2
h = square root (8^2 + 5^2)
h = square root (64 + 25)
h = 
square root (89) in
