Freddie is at chess practice waiting on his opponent's next move. He notices that the 4-inch-long minute hand is rotating around

the clock and marking off time like degrees on a unit circle.
Part 1: How many radians does the minute hand move from 3:35 to 3:55? (Hint: Find the number of degrees per minute first.)
Part 2: How far does the tip of the minute hand travel during that time?

One complete revolution of the minute hand sweeps a central angle of 360° which is equivalent to 60 minutes.
That is, the minute hand creates
(360°/(60 min) = 6 degrees/min.

From 3:35 to 3:55 is 20 minutes.
It sweeps a central angle of
 (20 min)*(6 deg/min) = 120°

Because 360° = 2π radians,
120° = (120/360)*2π = (2π)/3 radians

Answer:
 \frac{2 \pi }{3} \,radians
In decimals, this is 2.1 radians (nearest tenth)

Part 2:
Because the minute hand is 4 inches long, the length of the arc swept is
(4 in)*(2π/3 radians) = 8π/3 inches

Answer:
 \frac{8 \pi }{3} \,inches
In decimals, this is 8.4 inches (nearest tenth).

During a sale a dress decreased in price from $60 to $48 what was the percent of decrease
Elza [17]

Answer:

The percent decrease was 20%

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find this, use the percent change equation.

(New - Old)/(Old) * 100 = % Change

Now input 48 for the New price and 60 for the Old price.

(48 - 60)/(60) * 100 = % Change

12/60 * 100 = % Change

.2 * 100 = % Change

20 = % Change
