A ferris wheel rotates 9pi/8 radians prior to making a stop the total height of the ferris wheel is 246 ft how far around did the ferris wheel travel round to the nearest whole foot

ferris wheel travel approx = 434.72 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

given data

wheel rotates = 9pi/8 radians

total height of the ferris wheel =  246 ft

solution

we can say here that height of the ferris wheel is same as the diameter of the wheel

and wheel is circular in shape

so we get here first radius of wheel that is

radius = half of diameter    ..........................1

put here value and we get

radius = 0.5 × 246

radius = 123 ft

and

wheel travel distance = length of arc by a angle of wheel rotates

so here length of arc will be

arc length = radius × wheel rotates angle   .....................2

put here value and we get

arc length  = 123 ×

arc length = 434.7178 ft

so ferris wheel travel approx = 434.72 ft

to plot points   for x just start at the origin (middle) and go to the left however many times it say(if the number is a positive) if the number is a negative then go right however many times it says if it is 0 go nowhere

now keep you pencil there and go up however many times it says on y(if it is positive) if it is negative then go down however many times it says. if it says 0 go nowhere.

you have just plotted a point! now when you finish plotting all of them connect them with a ruler

plot each point as (-3, 7), (0,4), (3,1), (8,-4)   in the parenthesis on the left of the comma is x and the right is y.
