Question

Please Help!! :) I'll draw the picture.
Pictured here is a grain silo on a farm. If it can be filled to the very top with corn, about how much corn can this silo hold?

7,850 cubic feet of corn

23,550 cubic feet of corn

20,410 cubic feet of corn

81,640 cubic feet of corn

Answer 1

Find the volume of the right cylinder
find the volume of the cone
Add and the result should be the total volume.

Answer 2

How do u do volume of cylinders and cones again?

Answer 3

Do you want to do the cylincder first

Answer 4

Yup

Answer 5

V = Pir^2h\[V=\pi 10^{2}\times60=18849.55592 cuFt\] That is the cylinder part.

Answer 6

Okay and now for the cone one idk how to do cones

Answer 7

20,410 cubic feet of corn

Answer 8

Thanks

Answer 9

Now do the cone.\[\pi r ^{2}h \over3\]
That is the formula for volume of a Right Circular Cone.
r = radius (10 ft)
h = height (15 ft)

Answer 10

My Pleasure =)

Answer 11

\[\pi \times 10^{2}\times 15 \over 3 \]
=1570.796327 cu ft their sum would be 20420.35 cu ft

Answer 12

I used 3.141592654 for pi which may explain the difference in the result from SavannahSaturn.

Answer 13

I am sure you learned a great deal from theSavannahSaturn method lol

Answer 14

Just keeping it simple

Answer 15

the best answer is of course 20,410 cubic feet of corn.

Answer 16
