Abstract
In this article, we extend the definition of b-visibility given by Goins, Harris,
Kubik, and Mbirika to the study of weak visibility. For a fixed b ∈ N, we say that a point
Q = (h, k) in the array ∆_{m,n} = {1, 2, . . . , m} × {1, 2, . . . , n} is weakly b-visible from a point
P = (r,s)∈ ∆ if no other point in ∆ lies on the curve f(x) = [(s−k)/(r−h)^b](x-h)^b +k between Q and P. Using this definition, we give necessary and sufficient conditions for determining if a point in ∆_{m,n} is weakly b-visible by an external point. We also show that for any point P =(r,s) with r>m and s>n, there exists a b≥1such that every point in ∆_{m,n} is weakly b-visible from P . Our last result considers a fixed b > 1 and specifies the coordinates of a point P that weakly b-views every point in ∆_{m,n}, and as a corollary we provide a way to determine the coordinate
s of the closest point to the array satisfying such a condition. We end the article by providing a few directions for future research.

Cleaning beneath beds and sofas can be challenging when furniture sits close to the floor. A vacuum cleaner with a low-profile head, flexible wand, or extended reach can help access these neglected spaces. Dust and loose debris often collect in areas that receive little regular attention. Homeowners should check the appliance's height and attachment flexibility before purchasing. An appropriate design makes hidden areas easier to maintain and vacuumwarehouse supports a more thorough cleaning routine without requiring frequent furniture rearrangement.
Commercial coffee machines are designed to accommodate the higher demand found in cafés, restaurants, hotels, and hospitality venues. These appliances may offer larger boilers, multiple brewing groups, or faster preparation capabilities than domestic models. Choosing suitable equipment requires understanding expected customer volume, available utilities, staff training, and maintenance arrangements. Reliability is especially important when coffee service forms part of the customer experience. Evaluating capacity alongside coffeewarehouse operating requirements helps businesses invest in equipment that supports efficient service during busy periods.
