(08.02 MC) A grain silo is shown below: Grain silo formed by cylinder with radius 6 feet and height 168 feet and a half sphere on the top What is the volume of grain that could completely fill this silo, rounded to the nearest whole number? Use 22 over 7 for pi.

Hello!!!!

Find the volume of the bottom and top separately and then add them. Cylinder volume is the area of the bottom times the height (22/7)(5^2)•175=13750 ft^3
The volume of a sphere isV=(4/3)(22/7)r^3where r is the radius. Here that's also 5 since it fits on the cylinder. Also we only want half the sphere so useV=(2/3)(22/7)•5^3=261.9 ft^3Which we round upto 262. Now add the parts together 13750+262=14,012 ft^3
Hope this helps!

Answer:

19460 cubic feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we are given that Grain silo is formed by cylinder and a half sphere on top

We are required to find the volume of grain that could completely fill this silo

Formula of volume of cylinder :[tex]\pi r^{2}h[/tex]

Since we are given that the cylinder with which the silo is formed has height 168 feet and radius 6 feet

So, r = 6 feet

h = 168 feet

use π =22/7

Substituting these values in formula

Volume of cylinder [tex]= \frac{22}{7}*(6)^{2} * 168[/tex]

                                [tex]= \frac{22}{7}*36* 168[/tex]

                                [tex]= 19008 feet^{3}[/tex]

Thus the volume of cylinder is 19008 cubic feet.

Now since the silo is fomed of half sphere also

Formula of volume of sphere [tex]=\frac{4}{3} \pi r^{3}[/tex]

Volume of half sphere [tex]=\frac{\frac{4}{3}}{2} \pi r^{3}[/tex]

                                     [tex]=\frac{2}{3} \pi r^{3}[/tex]

Since r = 6 feet

So, volume of half sphere  [tex]=\frac{2}{3} * \frac{22}{7}*(6)^{3}[/tex]

                                            [tex]=452.57[/tex]

Thus the volume of half sphere is 452.57 cubic feet.

Thus the volume of the grain = volume of cylinder +volume of half sphere

                                                =19008+452.57

                                                =19460.57 cubic feet

Hence  the volume of grain that could completely fill this silo is 19460 cubic feet ( rounded to the nearest whole number )
