Answer:

Option A is correct

4.8 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Definition:

If the centers of two circle radius r and r' are d units apart, then the length of the direct common tangent between them is:

\sqrt{d^2-(r-r')^2}                 ....[1]

As per the statement:

A chain fits tightly around two gears as shown.

Let r' be the radius of the smaller gear.

The radius of lager gear(r) = 14 in

The distance between the centers(d) = 22 in.

Direct common tangent = 20 in.

Substitute in [1] we have;

20 = \sqrt{(22)^2-(14-r')^2}

Squaring both sides we have;

20^2 = 484-(14-r')^2

400= 484-(14-r')^2

⇒(14-r')^2 = 84

Taking square root both sides we have;

14-r' = \sqrt{84}

⇒14-r' = 9.2

Subtract 14 from both sides we have;

-r' = -4.8

Divide both sides by -1 we have;

r' = 4.8 inches

Therefore, the radius of the smaller gear to the nearest tenth is, 4.8 inches

Converting repeating decimals to a fraction
Goshia [24]

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

Let x equal the repeating decimal you are trying to convert to a fraction.

Step 2:

Examine the repeating decimal to find the repeating digit(s).

Step 3:

Place the repeating digit(s) to the left of the decimal point.

Step 4:

Place the repeating digit(s) to the right of the decimal point.

Step 5:

Using the two equations you found in step 3 and step 4, subtract the left sides of the two equations. Then, subtract the right sides of the two equations

As you subtract, just make sure that the difference is positive for both sides.

1x10 to the fifth power over 4x10 to the negative faith power given on scientific notation
MissTica

Answer:

2.5*10^{8}

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>The correct question is</em></u>

1x10 to the fifth power over 4x10 to the negative fourth power given on scientific notation

we know that

To divide two numbers in scientific notation, divide their coefficients and subtract their exponents.

we have

\frac{1*10^{5}}{4*10^{-4}}=(\frac{1}{4})*10^{5+4} =0.25*10^{9}= 2.5*10^{8}

4

Step-by-step explanation:

2*6 = 12

3*4 =12

these are all the numbers that would be a factor of 12 between 2-10

Help!! Create a set of coordinates to model a relation that is a linear function.
grigory [225]

Answer:

You can group a ratio or a multiple of x or y to prove a linear function.

To set coordinates randomly pick a title ie) rise in price for matches over 40 years.

$14 yr 10   $20 yr 11 etc. $25 year 12 etc.

We show yr 0 = 0  yr 1 = 8 and if 8 is the price we have a ratio start of 1:8 upon year 1. we then pinpoint the data what year was $16 and we know that yr 10 = $14 so yr 11 = $16.

Once we can write a format which isn't asked we can prove the relationship target of the graph would be x8

As the x y relationship coordinates can be shown here.

= 1 , 8

2 ,16

3 ,24

4, 32

and then change number of years to decades. To make a linear equation work we could change the rate upon the decade that shows a more stable rate of change to be of significance and easier to read.

Step-by-step explanation:

A linear function is a type of function of x and y proves a single line.

When a given ratio or rate of increase occurs ie) xy = 1/8 or 8/1 we can set the 1-4 decades spaced out on a graph and go up by decades since 1980 = decade 1, decade 2 decade 3 decade 4

for x value and for y we have price the actual data of change.

Therefore y = price change from $8 - $32 in last 40 years to appeal to advertisers who want to be ethical and fair for customers who pay more than $32 a game, they look for linear graphs that can show least amount cost of a ticket and average price ticket and compare success stories in advertising to crowds to further testing graphs before advertising so that companies can test advertising before sponsorship which is one way of investment, that can help ease costs of selection of tickets and go full circle for the financier of such games.They need linear graphs to compare to other business as each linear graphs can show better stability. So it is a good example to show costs and prices as prices demonstrate exactly how companies grow compared to their competitors.
