Answer:

Cylinder C is the right answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find the storage capacity or the volume of cylindrical silos.

A. radius 6 feet; height 60 feet

Volume = $\pi r^{2} h$

V = $3.14\times6\times6\times60=6782.40$ cubic feet

B. radius 8 feet; height 50 feet

V = $3.14\times8\times8\times50=10048$ cubic feet

C. radius 10 feet; height 34 feet

V = $3.14\times10\times10\times34=10676$ cubic feet

D. radius 12 feet; height 20 feet

V = $3.14\times12\times12\times20=9043.20$ cubic feet

Comparing all the volumes, we can see that cylinder C has the heighest volume.

Therefore, cylinder C is the right answer.

What is true about the completely simplified sum of the polynomials 3x2y2 − 2xy5 and −3x2y2 + 3x4y?

Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

The sum is a binomial with a degree of 6

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$(3x^{2}y^{2}-2xy^{5})+(-3x^{2}y^{2}+3x^{4}y)$

Group terms that contain the same variable

$(3x^{2}y^{2}-3x^{2}y^{2})-2xy^{5}+3x^{4}y$

$0-2xy^{5}+3x^{4}y$

$-2xy^{5}+3x^{4}y$

The sum is a binomial ( two terms) with a degree of 6

$-2xy^{5}$ has a degree of 6 (x has an exponent of 1, y has 5, and 1+5=6)

Alex found a new black bean soup recipe that calls for tomatoes and black beans. If tomatoes cost $1.60 per pound and black bean

djverab [1.8K]

Alex can buy at most 4 pounds of tomatoes

Let:

a represent pounds of tomatoes to buy

3a represent pounds of black beans to buy

Total cost of each ingredient that can be bought = number of pounds x price per pound

Tomatoes = a x $1.60 = 1.60a

Black beans = 3a x $1.70 = 5.1a

1.60a + 5.1a = 26.80

Add similar terms

6.7a = 26.80

Divide both sides of the equation by 6.7

a = 4 pounds

Michelle is trying to buy a car that costs $35,550, and she has saved up $20,700. She borrowed the remaining amount that she nee

Dimas [21]

Answer: $ 4,515

Step-by-step explanation:

$\\$ The cost of the car she wanted to buy = $35,550

$\\$ Her savings = $20,700

$\\$ That means she needs( $35,550 - $20,700) more in order for her to buy the car.

$\\$ Amount borrowed from the finance company = $35,550 - $20,700

$\\$ = $ 14,850

$\\$ Since she now owes the financial company a total of $19,365, then the interest accrued by the loan she borrowed is given by:

$\\$ $19,365 - $ 14,850

$\\$ = $4,515
