Answer: Simplified form will be

\frac{(x-5)}{(x-4)}

Explanation:

Since we have given that

\frac{5x^2-21x-20}{5x^2-16x-16}

We need to simplify the expression, we get,

\frac{5x^2-25x+4x-20}{5x^2-20x+4x-16}\\\\\text{We will split the middle terms}\\\\=\frac{5x(x-5)+4(x-5)}{5x(x-4)+4(x-4)}\\\\=\frac{(5x+4)(x-4)}{(5x+4)(x-4)}\\\\\text{ Cancel the common terms}\\\\=\frac{(x-5)}{(x-4)}

Hence, simplified form will be

\frac{(x-5)}{(x-4)}

The base of a rectangular prism has an area of 12 square centimeters. The height of the rectangular prism is 3 centimeters. What
UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

36 cubic centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are tasked with calculating the volume of the rectangular prism.

mathematically, that can be obtained by using the formula for the volume of the rectangular prism.

V = Base area * height

from the question, we have the base area as 12 square centimeters and the height as 3 centimeters.

Plugging these values into the equation, the value of the volume is thus 12 * 3 = 36 cubic centimeters

Two gears are connected and are rotating simultaneously. The smaller gear has a radius of 2 inches, and the larger gear has a ra
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

Let r represent the radius of the smaller circle and R the radius of the larger circle.

Apply ratios: the radius of smaller circle to radius of larger circle, i.e.

r: R = 3 : 7.

I complete rotation = 360 degrees.

Part 1:

For one complete rotation of the smaller circle, the larger circle is rotated through: (3/7)*(360) = 154.3 degrees

Part 2:

For one complete rotation of the larger circle, the larger circle is rotated through: (7/3)*(360) = 840.0 degrees

This is equivalent to (840/360) = 2.3 rotations

Alternatively, use the ratios:

The number of rotations = R/r = 7/3 = 2.3 rotations
