Solving a Sinusoidal Inequality
A piston in an engine moves according to the equation $$d(t) = 6\sin(4\pi t) + 2$$, where $$d$$ is the distance in centimeters from a reference point and $$t$$ is time in seconds. The piston can only deliver power when $$d > 6$$ cm. What fraction of each cycle does the piston deliver power?

B
1/2
