Answer:

  4√(3π) ft ≈ 12.28 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The formulas for volume of a cone and a cylinder can be used to find the radius of the silo. Then the formula for the circumference of a circle can be used to find the circumference.

__

Relevant formulas are ...

  • V = πr²h . . . . . volume, cylinder with radius r, height h
  • V = 1/3πr²h . . . . volume, cone with radius r, height h
  • C = 2πr . . . . . . . . circumference of a circle with radius r

__

<h3>radius from volume</h3>

The total volume of the silo is the sum of the volumes of a cylinder of height (15 -6) = 9 ft, and a cone of height 6 ft. Both have the same radius: r. The total volume is given as 132 ft³.

  V = πr²h + 1/3πr²h' . . . . . . h = cylinder height, h' = cone height

  132 ft³ =  πr²(9 ft +1/3(6 ft)) = πr²(11 ft)

  r² = 132 ft³/(11π ft) = 12/π ft²

  r = √(12/π) ft = 2√(3/π) ft

<h3>circumference from radius</h3>

Then the circumference of the silo is ...

  C = 2πr = 2π(2√(3/π)) ft = 4√(3π) ft ≈ 12.28 ft

The circumference of the base of the silo is 4√(3π), about 12.28 feet.

Suppose that the dollar cost of producing x radios is c(x) = 400 + 20x - 0.2x 2. Find the marginal cost when 30 radios are produ
My name is Ann [436]
C(x) = 400 + 20x - 0.2x²

c(30) = 400 + 20(30) - 0.2(30)²

= 400 + 600 - 0.2(900)
= 1000 - 180
= 820

It costs $820 when 30 radios are produced. 

Marginal cost is how much it would cost to make one MORE of the same product so now we find how much it costs to produce 31 radios and compare the two. 

c(31) = 400 + 20(31) - 0.2(31)²

= 400 + 620 - 0.2(961)
= 1020 - 192.2
= 827.8 or ≈828.

Now we find the difference which means we subtract the two. 

828 - 820 = 8. 

Your marginal cost is $8. 

To compare we can also do 29 radios. 

c(29) = 400 + 20(29) - 0.2(29)² = 811.8 or ≈812

820 - 812 = 8.

3 / m + 4 - 4 / m = 6 (i) Show that this equation can be written as 6m^2 + 25m+16= 0
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

Proved Below

Step-by-step explanation:

\sf \frac{3}{m+4} - \frac{4}{m} = 6\\LCM = m(m+4)\\Multiplying \ both \ sides \ by\ m(m+4)\\3m - 4(m+4) = 6m(m+4)\\3m-4m-16 = 6m^2+24m\\-m-16 = 6m^2+24m\\Adding\ m\ to\ both\ sides\\-16 = 6m^2+24m+m\\-16 = 6m^2+25m\\Adding \ 16 \ to \ both \ sides\\0 = 6m^2+25m+16\\OR\\6m^2+25m+16 = 0

Hence, Proved that \sf \frac{3}{m+4} - \frac{4}{m} = 6 is equivalent to \sf 6m^2+25m+16 = 0.

How do you find the Slope of a line?
UNO [17]

You find the slope of the line by using the formula \frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1} where x1 and y1 is the first point, and x2 and y2 are the second point.
