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

A geometric series has second term 375 and fifth term 81 . find the sum to infinity of series .

Eduardwww [97]

Answer: $\bold{S_{\infty}=\dfrac{3125}{2}=1562.5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

a₁, 375, a₃, a₄, 81

First, let's find the ratio (r). There are three multiple from 375 to 81.

$375r^3=81\\\\r^3=\dfrac{81}{375}\\\\\\r^3=\dfrac{27}{125}\qquad \leftarrow simplied\\\\\\\sqrt[3]{r^3} =\sqrt[3]{\dfrac{27}{125}}\\ \\\\r=\dfrac{3}{5}$

Next, let's find a₁

$a_1\bigg(\dfrac{3}{5}\bigg)=375\\\\\\a_1=375\bigg(\dfrac{5}{3}\bigg)\\\\\\a_1=125(5)\\\\\\a_1=625$

Lastly, Use the Infinite Geometric Sum Formula to find the sum:

$S_{\infty}=\dfrac{a_1}{1-r}\\\\\\.\quad =\dfrac{625}{1-\frac{3}{5}}\\\\\\.\quad =\dfrac{625}{\frac{2}{5}}\\\\\\.\quad = \dfrac{625(5)}{2}\\\\\\.\quad = \large\boxed{\dfrac{3125}{2}}$
