h a radius of 48 inches and swept through 255° of rotation. Assuming the arc is circular, what is the distance the tip of the bat travels in inches in terms of pi? How many feet is this in terms of pi?

Answer:

<u></u>

  • <u>a) 60π inches</u>

<u></u>

  • <u>b) 5π feet</u>

<u></u>

Explanation:

The <em>arc length</em> of a <em>circular </em>sector is related to the <em>swept angle</em> by the proportion:

       

        \dfrac{arc\text{ }length}{2\pi \cdot radius}=\dfrac{angle}{360\º}

Here you have:

  • arc length: ?
  • radius: 48 inches
  • angle: 225º

Substitute and solve for the arc length:

In inches:

       arc\text{ }length=\dfrac{225\º}{360\º}\times 2\pi (48in)}=60\pi   inches

Convert to feet:

Use the conversion factor: 1 feet = 12 inches

           60\pi\text{ }in\times\dfrac{1ft}{12in}=5\pi ft

Rudik [331]
No.of stamps Billy had = 55

Number of stamps Billy's older brother had = 73

So total number of stamps two brother have together = 73 + 55
                                                                                     = 128

Amanda and Alexis live 4 miles apart. They decide to start walking toward each other’s houses at the same time. Amanda walks at
pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

t = 0.53 hr

Step-by-step explanation:

We write expressions for the distances walked by these two people, sum them up and set the sum equal to 4 miles:

(3.5 mph)(t) + (4mph)(t) = 4 mi

Combining these terms:  

(7.5 mph)(t) = 4 mi

                               4 mi

Solving for t:  t = ---------------- = 0.53 hr

                              7.5 mph
