Question

Use the method of composite parts to determine the x and y coordinates of the centroidof the shape shown to the right. Give the coordinates in terms of the origin point at the bottom left of the figure.

The image depicts a U-shaped channel with labeled dimensions and a coordinate plane with x and y axes. Below is a detailed transcription of the components:

Dimensions:
- The width of the vertical parts of the U-shape is marked as 0.5 inches.
- The internal gap between the vertical parts is 4 inches.
- The outer height of the U-shape on the right is labeled with two segments, one of 3 inches and another of 1 inch, summing up to an overall height of 4 inches.

Axes:
- The bottom-left corner of the U-shape is marked with a coordinate origin, denoting the intersection of the x (horizontal) and y (vertical) axes. The arrows indicate positive directions for both axes.
