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.
A car can travel 65 miles per hour.
Over 12 hours, it will travel 780 miles.
12 * 65 = 780
5/8 - 17/8
combine : 5-17 / 8
subtract : 5 - 7 = -12
-12/8
apply fraction rule ( -a/b = - a/b) : - 12/8
cancel common factor 4
answer : - 3/2
I hope this helped
