Using a 10' long piece of strut as a straightedge, you are trying to determine the outside diameter of a grain storage silo. You

and your partner very carefully measure from the ends of the straightedge, squarely, in to the wall of the silo and find that the “H” distance is 14 3/4" at both ends. What is the radius of the silo in inches? Note: The values calculated for this question may be used for additional questions. (Round the answer to the nearest 1/8".)

The radius of the silo is the distance from its center to the outside wall

The radius of the silo is 7 3/8" or 7 3/8 inches

<h3>How to determine the radius?</h3>

From the question, we have the following parameters:

  • Length of strut = 10'
  • Outside diameter of silo = 14 3/4"

The radius is then calculated as:

Radius = 0.5 * Diameter

This gives

Radius = 0.5 * 14 3/4"

Evaluate the product

Radius = 7 3/8"

Hence, the radius of the silo is 7 3/8" or 7 3/8 inches

Answer:

  A) J(-3, 1), ...

Step-by-step explanation:

All of the answer choices list point J' first, so it is convenient to use that as an example.

Point J on the given graph has coordinates (x, y) = (3, 2). The x-coordinate is 3 because the point is 3 units to the right of the y-axis.

The problem statement tells you to translate this point 6 units to the left. When you move it 6 units left, it will move left 3 units to the y-axis, then left 3 more units to have an x-coordinate of 3 -6 = -3. That is, each unit of movement to the left subtracts 1 from the x-coordinate. The x-coordinate of J is 3, so the final point J' will have an x-coordinate of 3 - 6 = -3.

At this point, you have enough information to make the correct answer selection. Only one answer choice has the x-coordinate of J' as -3.

__

The other coordinates are translated using similar logic. The y-coordinate of J is 2. Translating it down 1 unit subtracts 1 from the y-coordinate to make it be 2 -1 = 1. Then the coordinates of J' are (-3, 1).

We write the translation rule as ...

  (x, y) ⇒ (x -6, y -1)

This means the coordinates of each translated point have 6 subtracted from the original x-coordinate, and 1 subtracted from the original y-coordinate. The other coordinates of the figure are ...

  I(2, 4) ⇒ I'(2 -6, 4 -1) = I'(-4, 3)

  H(5, 5) ⇒ H'(5 -6, 5 -1) = H'(-1, 4)

  G(4, 1) ⇒ G'(4 -6, 1 -1) = G'(-2, 0)

Answer:

469 iPads were donated.

Step-by-step explanation:

The school purchased 396 iPads in total: 300+96

Now, you subtract how many the school purchased from the total amount of iPads to see how many iPads were donated: 865-396 = 469
