9) Suppose that you take two standard \(8.5\) x \(11\) inch pieces of paper and roll one into a cylinder in landscape and and one into a cylinder in portrait. Now fill both with beans. Which cylinder would hold more beans, the cylinder with a circumference of \(11\) inches and a height of \(8.5\) inches or the cylinder with a circumference of \(8.5\) inches and a height of \(11\) inches? Explain your mathematical reasoning by finding the volume of both cylinders.
14) The earth and its moon are tidally locked. In other words, the moon takes \(28\) days to go revolve around the earth and \(28\) days to rotate once on its own axis. For this reason, we only see one face (hemisphere) of the moon. We never see the other side of the moon because it is always facing away from us. If the surface area of what we can see is \(7,315,142\) square miles, then what is the total volume of the moon?
