yeah but I do not want a slice, because it involves two cuts. I want to cut once.

the line red is half the pill, but I want to know if the green line is good for dividing into 60-40

I feel like you're disguising your homework problem as a practical problem. If you need to dose it, there are lots of better ways to do it. Like crushing the pill and weighing it out on a scale

>>8450534
no I want to keep the 60% part of pill intact, for another cat. Anyway, I divided one half into two halves and it gives me 62,5%. I only have a knife and some humidified cat food to break the pill, so it is the best I can do I think.

I think it probably makes the most sense to crush the pills and weigh out however much you want. That way you won't have an issue measuring your cuts

I don't feel like solving it, but anyone else can go right ahead

I messed up the function by forgetting to split it up at inflection points

I went out of my way to actually solve it, you cut .502694487% of the diameter of the tablet, which doesnt seem right but w/e It was a long af calculation and I messed up probably

(1/2 area of circle + integral area of the circle function with a variable shift in the y center coordinate)/area of circle = .6

Solve the integral and then solve for the amount of shift. The amount of shift is how much distance off center to make the cut.

Just give half the tablet.

>>8450517
Feed your cat to 2.5x of his original weight and give him the whole tablet, problem solved

>>8450517
circle radius 1:
https://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=0.4%3Dint+(sqrt(1-x%5E2)+-+k)+from+-1+to+1

0.5854/2 = 0.293

so cut the cat like 29% of its diameter from the center.

Give him half the tablet. Give going the other half later.
