Question: A built - up section similar to that shown in Figure 7 in the text consists of a 2 4 3 8 web plate, four

A built-up section similar to that shown in Figure 7 in the text consists of a 2438 web plate, four 6412 angles placed with their long legs outstanding,
and two 1412 cover plates. The area of a 6412 angle is 4.75 sq in., the moment of inertia of an angle with respect to the axis through its centroid that is
parallel to the longer leg is 6.3 in.?4, and the distance from the back of the longer leg to the centroid is 0.99 in. If the distance between the backs of the angles is
2412 in., what is the moment of inertia of the entire section with respect to the neutral axis that is perpendicular to the web plate, as axis XX in Figure 7?(Shown
above)
A.4900 in.4
B.4777 in ?4
C.5029 in.4
D.5054 in.?4
