Answer: 1/2, 1/2, 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the fraction that the hour hand turns of a clockwise revolution, we have to find how long it is going then divide by 12

Ex. a) 11 - 5 = 6, 6/12 = 1/2 so the hour hand turns by 1/2 of a clockwise revolution

b) 8 - 2 = 6, 6/12 = 1/2 so the hour hand turns by 1/2 of a clockwise revolution

c) For this, we have to convert 1 into 13 as 1 - 10 is a negative number

13 - 10 = 3, 3/12 = 1/4 so the hour hand turns by 1/4 of a clockwise revolution

The answers are :

a) 1/2

b) 1/2

c) 1/4

To find the fraction of a clockwise revolution, take the ratio between hours covered and hours covered in one revolution.

a)

  • Hours covered between 5 and 11 ⇒ 11 - 5 = 6
  • Hours covered in 1 revolution ⇒ 12
  • 6/12 = 1/2

b)

  • Hours covered between 2 and 8 ⇒ 8 - 2 = 6
  • Hours covered in 1 revolution ⇒ 12
  • 6/12 = 1/2

c)

  • Hours covered between 10 and 1 ⇒ 13 - 10 = 3 (∴ <u>12 + 1 = 13)</u>
  • Hours covered in 1 revolution ⇒ 12
  • 3/12 = 1/4

I need help with writing the equation​
cricket20 [7]

Answer:

y=-1/8y+1

Step-by-step explanation:

flip the equation, then add -8 to both sides to cancel out the +8 on the left, then divide sides by -8Let's solve for x.

y=−8x+8

Step 1: Flip the equation.

−8x+8=y

Step 2: Add -8 to both sides.

−8x+8+−8=y+−8

−8x=y−8

Step 3: Divide both sides by -8.

Find the area of the Shaded region use ,3.14. note that the top of the figure is a semicircle
Tema [17]
The area is 20.5632 cm sq.

Lets break it down:

Triangle- the area of a triangle is bh/2 (base×height÷2). If we plug in the numbers, the base is 4.8 and the height is 4.8. 4.8×4.8= 23.04÷2= 11.52

Semi circle- the area of the semi circle is pi×radius×radius. We have the diameter (4.8) so we would need to divide 4.8 by 2 to get 2.4. 2.4×2.4×3.14= 18.0864. We need to divide that by 2 because its a semi circle so 18.0864÷2= 9.0432

11.52+9.0432= 20.5632 cm sq.

hope this helps!
