Two gears are connected and are rotating simultaneously. The smaller gear has a radius of 3 inches, and the larger gear has a ra

dius of 7 inches.
Part 1: What is the angle measure, in degrees and rounded to the nearest tenth, through which the larger gear has rotated when the smaller gear has made one complete rotation?

Part 2: How many rotations will the smaller gear make during one complete rotation of the larger gear?

Show all work.

Circumference of a circle is C = 2πr.

part 1)

so the radius of the smaller gear is 3 inches, so after a full rotation, namely a revolution, the smaller gear has covered an arc of 2π(3), or 6π.

what angle has the larger gear of 7 inches in radius, has it covered with an arc of 6π?

\bf \textit{arc's length}\\\\
s=r\theta ~~
\begin{cases}
r=radius\\
\theta =angle~in\\
\qquad radians\\
------\\
s=6\pi \\
r=7
\end{cases}\implies 6\pi =7\theta \implies \cfrac{6\pi }{7}=\theta



part 2)

since the larger gear has a radius of 7, in a revolution it will have an arc of 2π(7), or 14π.

now, we know the smaller gear does a 6π arc in a revolution, how many revolutions will it do in an arc of 14π?

\bf \begin{array}{ccll}
arc&revolution\\
\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\
6\pi &1\\
14\pi &x
\end{array}\implies \cfrac{6\pi }{14\pi }=\cfrac{1}{x}\implies \cfrac{3}{7}=\cfrac{1}{x}\implies x=\cfrac{7}{3}

Solve for x. round to nearest tenth. angle DEF is an equilateral triangle. hyp is 24
Arturiano [62]

Since the triangle DEF is an equilateral triangle and x is the height of this triangle, we can use the following formula for the height of an equilateral triangle:

h=\frac{l\sqrt[]{3}}{2}

Where 'l' is the length of the triangle side.

So, using l = 13, we have:

\begin{gathered} x=\frac{13\cdot\sqrt[]{3}}{2} \\ x=\frac{13\cdot1.73}{2} \\ x=11.2 \end{gathered}

So the value of x is 11.2

What is the sum of the sixth terms of the geometric series 2-6+18-54+
lions [1.4K]

Answer: 122

Step-by-step explanation:

Since it is a geometric sequence, lets see the pattern below:

  • -6÷2=-3
  • 18÷-6=-3
  • -54÷18=-3

From this, we can see that we multiply each number by -3 to get the next number.

Before we find the sum, we first find the next number.

-54×-3=162

So the whole sequence will be: 2, -6, 18, -54, 162

Find the sum

 2+(-6)+18+(-54)+162

=2-6+18-54+162

=-4-36+162

=-40+162

=122

Hope this helps!! :)
