Building: A builder wants to make a model of the farm's silo pictured below. Use the model for Exercises 1-3. Exercises 1 and 2 have been started for you.The silo is 15ft x 75 ft.1. If the scale of the model is 1 in : 2 1/2 ft, find the height of the model silo.3. Suppose the builder wants to make a model using the scale 1 in : 6 ft. What is the height and the diameter of the model?~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~The scale of a map is 1 in : 10 mi. How many actual miles does each of the following measurements represent?5. 2 1/2 in.7. 5.3 in.
Lacking the picture, I assume the silo is a cylindrical one, 75 feet high and 15 feet in diameter. At scale 1 in:2 1/2 ft., the model will be 75/2.5 = 30 high and 15/2.5 = 6 in diameter At scale 1 in:6 ft., the model will be 75/6 = 12.5 high and 15/6 = 2.5 in diameter At scale 1 in:10 miles 2 1/2 represents 2.5 x 10 = 25 miles and 5.3 represents 5.3 x 10 = 53 miles
