If a smaller replica of the Ferris wheel was constructed, what conclusions could you draw about the central angle of the original wheel and replica? What conclusions could you draw about the arc length of the original Ferris wheel and replica?
here are my calculations
1. Name of the Ferris wheel - The London Eye

2. Diameter of the wheel - 120m

3. Number of cars / compartments - 32

4. Circumference of the wheel - 2πr = 2π(60) = 376.99 ≈ 377m

5. Area of the wheel - πr^2 = π(60)^2 = 11,309.73 ≈ 11,310m^2

6. Measure of a central angle in degrees - 360 / 32 = 11.25 degrees

7. Measure of a central angle in radians - 2π(x) / 360

2π(11.25) /360 = .1963495408 ≈ .20 radians

8. Arc length between two cars or compartments - 2πr(x) / 360

2π(60)(11.25) /360 = 11.78

9. Area of a sector between two cars or compartments - πr^2(x) / 360

π(60^2)(11.25) / 360 = 353.43

Asystem of linear equations with more equations than unknowns is sometimes called an overdetermined system. can such a system be consistent? illustrate your answer with a specific system of three equations in two unknowns. choose the correct answer below. a. yes, overdetermined systems can be consistent. for example, the system of equations below is consistent because it has the solution nothing. (type an ordered pair.) x 1 equals 2 comma x 2 equals 4 comma x 1 plus x 2 equals 6 b. no, overdetermined systems cannot be consistent because there are fewer free variables than equations. for example, the system of equations below has no solution. x 1 equals 2 comma x 2 equals 4 comma x 1 plus x 2 equals 12 c. yes, overdetermined systems can be consistent. for example, the system of equations below is consistent because it has the solution nothing. (type an ordered pair.) x 1 equals 2 comma x 2 equals 4 comma x 1 plus x 2 equals 8 d. no, overdetermined systems cannot be consistent because there are no free variables. for example, the system of equations below has no solution. x 1 equals 2 comma x 2 equals 4 comma x 1 plus x 2 equals 24
