Question

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



What is the total volume of grains that can be stored in the silo?

58π ft3

40π ft3

23π ft3

36π ft3

Answer 1

The figure shows a silo shaped as a closed cylinder with a conical end. The diameter of the silo is 4 ft, the length of the cylindrical part is 9.5 ft, and the entire length of the silo is 13 ft.

Answer 2

\(\huge\cal\color{cyan}{Welcome~to~OpenStudy!!!:)}\) For number 1,
total volume = volume of conical base section + volume of cylinder section

Answer 3

in the question it is given : total height is 13 ft cylinder height is 9.5 ft can we figure out the height of cone now ?

Answer 4

i am sorry but i am so confused :(((((

Answer 5

Ok. Sorry about the confusion. I thought there was 2 questions. For this problem, total volume = volume of conical base section + volume of cylinder section. Got it?

Answer 6

yes :) so V= conical section volume + 106.81(volume of cylinder)?

Answer 7

Yep!!:D You got it!:D

Answer 8

:D yay so the conical section volume is 54.45?

Answer 9

Perfect!:D

Answer 10

Thanks!! so V= 161.26? then what ? :)

Answer 11

Divide it by the formula :D
Hint: It will NOT come out evenly.

Answer 12

sorry which formula? :D

Answer 13

\[\frac{ 1 }{ 3 } \pi r^2h\]

Answer 14

162.26 / 3?

Answer 15

Mistake: It's not 162.26/3
But, 161.26. Yes.
Divide 161.26 / 3

Answer 16

53.75? so A? since its the closest?

Answer 17

Yep!! \(\cal\huge\checkmark\)
