Is 81/4 considered a rational number

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

A rational number is a number that can be expressed as a fraction p/q where p and q are integers and q!=0. A rational number p/q is said to have numerator p and denominator q. Numbers that are not rational are called irrational numbers. The real line consists of the union of the rational and irrational numbers. The set of rational numbers is of measure zero on the real line, so it is "small" compared to the irrationals and the continuum.

The set of all rational numbers is referred to as the "rationals," and forms a field that is denoted Q. Here, the symbol  Q derives from the German word Quotient, which can be translated as "ratio," and first appeared in Bourbaki's Algèbre (reprinted as Bourbaki 1998, p. 671).

Any rational number is trivially also an algebraic number.

Examples of rational numbers include -7, 0, 1, 1/2, 22/7, 12345/67, and so on. Farey sequences provide a way of systematically enumerating all rational numbers.

The set of rational numbers is denoted Rationals in the Wolfram Language, and a number  x can be tested to see if it is rational using the command Element[x, Rationals].

The elementary algebraic operations for combining rational numbers are exactly the same as for combining fractions.

It is always possible to find another rational number between any two members of the set of rationals. Therefore, rather counterintuitively, the rational numbers are a continuous set, but at the same time countable.

A company that manufactures storage bins for grains made a drawing of a silo. The silo has a conical base, as shown below:
77julia77 [94]

Answer: π (2ft)² ( 8ft) + 1/3 π (2ft)² (9.5ft-8ft)

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to calculate the volume of the circular prism and the cone that forms the silo.

Volume of the circular prism (p) = area of the circular base x height of the prism.

Area of the circular base= π r^2

Since:

Diameter= 2 radius

4 = 2r

4/2 = r

r= 2

Back with the area:

Area of the circular base= π 2^2

Back with the volume formula:

p = area of the circular base x height of the prism.

p = π 2^2 x 8

Next, we have to calculate the volume of the cone (c)=

Volume of a cone = 1/3 π r²h

The radius of the cone is the same as the radius of the cylinder, and the height of the cone is equal to the total height of the silo minus the height of the cylinder part.

c = 1/3 π 2² (9.5-8)

Adding both volumes (cylinder and cone) we obtain the volume of the silo:

Volume of the silo: π 2² x 8 + 1/3 π 2² (9.5-8)

V = π (2ft)² ( 8ft) + 1/3 π (2ft)² (9.5ft-8ft)
