A rectangular window measures 54 inches by 24 inches. There is an a = 14-inch wiper blade attached by a b = 5-inch arm at the ce

nter of the base of the window, as shown in the figure below. If the arm rotates 120°, approximate the percentage of the window's area that is wiped by the blade.

It the wiper blade (and arm) made a full rotation, 2 circles would be formed.

One small circle with radius b, and a larger circle with radius a+b.


The areas of these 2 circles are respectively:

\pi b^2=\pi\cdot 5^2=25 \pi (in^2)    and

\pi (a+b)^2=\pi (14+5)^2=361\pi (in^2)


120° is 1/3 of a complete angle 360° which form a circle, so the areas formed by the arm of length b, and the arm + the wiper blade (a+b) are:

\frac{25 \pi}{3} and \frac{361\pi}{3} in squared respectively.

the actual wiped area is \frac{361\pi}{3}-\frac{25 \pi}{3}= \frac{336\pi}{3}=112\pi \approx351.7 (in squared)


Area of the window is 54*24= 1296 (in squared)

thus, the ratio of the wiped area to the whole area of the window is 351.7/1296=0.271

Converted to percentages, this is 27.1%


Answer: 27.1%

If the scale factor of a scale drawing is greater than one, the scale drawing is larger than the actual object
galina1969 [7]
False, for example, if the scale factor is 2, the scale drawing would still be smaller because it would be twice as smaller than the actual object.

Given the parent function f(x) = 2^x, which graph shows f(x) + 1?
mixer [17]

Answer: First Option

a) exponential function going through point (0, 2) and ending up on the right

Step-by-step explanation:

Look at the attached image, the red line represents a function of the form:

f(x) = 2^x

Note that this function cuts to the axis and at the point (0, 1)

Also when x tends to ∞ f(x) tends to ∞ and when f(x) tends to -∞ then f(x) tends to zero.

If we perform the transformation y = f(x) +1 then the graph of y is equal to the graph of f(x) displaced 1 unit up. Then the new cutting point with the axis y will be: (0, 2) as shown in the attached image (blue line)

The transform function is y =2^x +1

Finally the answer is the first option

4x+2y=-24<br> -4x+y = 12
allsm [11]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

                                4x+2y = -24    -------------(i)

                              <u>  -4x+y =  12    -</u>------------(ii)

add (i) &(ii)                      3y = -12

                                         y = -12/3

                                         y = -4

Put y = (-4) in (i)

4x + 2*(-4) = -24

4x - 8 = -24

4x = -24 + 8

4x = -16

x = -16/4

x = -4
