7 is a constant

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{x}{3} +7$

We need to find the coefficient of each term in the given expression

x/3 can be written as 1/3 times x

The coefficient is the number with the variable x

The coefficient of x is $\frac{1}{3}$

Find the distance between the points (-3,2) and (0,3).

Alex777 [14]

Answer:

The distance between (-3, 2) and (0,3) is √10.

Step-by-step explanation:

As we go from (-3,2) to (0,3), x increases by 3 and y increases by 1.

Think of a triangle with base 3 and height 1. Use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the length of the hypotenuse, which represents the distance between the points (-3, 2) and (0, 3):

distance = √(3² + 1²) = √10

The distance between (-3, 2) and (0,3) is √10.

Solve & Explain your Math thinking 12-7

Tom [10]

For this case we have the following subtraction:

$12-7$

We can rewrite the subtraction in an easier way.

We have then:

$12-7 = 12 - (5 + 2)$

Then, by doing associative property we have:

$12 - (5 + 2) = (12-2) - 5\\(12-2) - 5 = 10 - 5\\10 - 5 = 5$

Answer:

The value of the subtraction is given by:

$12-7 = 5$

Currently a product has a gear ratio of 17:5, driver:driven. If the company wants to change the product to have the same gear ra

Sedbober [7]

Answer:

10 teeth must go on the driven gear

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of teeth be x

In order for the new product to maintain the same ratio as the old the ratio must remain the same. This means that

17:5 = 34:x

$\frac{17}{5} = \frac{34}{x}\\Now\ let\ us\ cross-multiply\\17 \times x = 5 \times 34\\17x = 170\\dividing\ both\ sides\ by\ 17 \\x = \frac{170}{17} \\x = 10$

∴ 10 teeth must go on the driven gear

hence ratio = 34:10
