Answer:

Step-by-step explanation: The volume of the grain silo can be found by adding the volumes of all the solids of which it is composed (a cylinder and two cones). The silo is made up of a cylinder (with height 10 feet and base radius 5 feet) and two cones (each with height 5 ft and base radius 5 ft). The formulas given at the beginning of the SAT Math section:

Volume of a Cone:

V=\frac{1}{3} \pi r^2h

Volume of a Cylinder:

V=\pi r^2h

can be used to determine the total volume of the silo. Since the two cones have identical dimensions, the total volume, in cubic feet, of the silo is given by

V_{silo} =\pi (5^2)(10)+(2)(\frac{1}{3})\pi (5^2)(5)=(\frac{4}{3})(250)\pi

which is approximately equal to 1,047.2 cubic feet.

<u>The final answer is D.</u>

Y= 9x -9 y= 9 substitution method
Aneli [31]
You would plug in the y=9 into the first equation and then have the expression 9=9x-9
. After going through the first steps of solving an expression you would get 18=9x. X=2. Then you would plug in the x value into the first expression to get y=9.

I dont get how to solve this?
Alex

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In standard form this could be rewritten as | b - 0 | > 6, which in words, says,

"b is greater than 6 units away from 0 on a number line".  If b is greater than 6 units away, both positive 6 and negative 6 are 6 units away from 0.  Because the values we need are greater than 6 units away from 0, we are starting at both 6 and -6 and moving away from 0.  

The "greater than" symbol indicates that this is a disjunction so the word "or" is used as opposed to in a conjunction where the word "and" is used.

Therefore, our solutions are

b < -6 or b > 6, the 3rd choice down

Jenny wants to rent a truck. She contacts two truck companies. Avis truck company charges $20 plus $2 per mile. Budget truck com
Aloiza [94]

Answer: 20 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are informed that Avis truck company charges $20 plus $2 per mile and that Budget truck company charges $3 per mile.

Let the number of miles that the charge will be the same for both companies be represented by x. This can then be used to form an equation as:

20 + 2x = (3 × x)

20 + 2x = 3x

3x - 2x = 20

x = 20

The charge will be thesame at 20 miles
