Answer:

60 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

So if 1 inch = 12 miles, you need to find 4 inches. There are multiple ways to achieve this. However ratios/proportions might be easiest.

if 1/12 = 4/x, x is the value of miles. Cross multiply so you get this:

1           4

-     =    -       =        60 = x

12          x

If x equals 60, that means that 4 inches equals 60 miles on the map.

You could also just find an equal fraction by multiplying the top and bottom both by 4.

A 12​-tooth gear on a motor shaft drives a larger gear having 42 teeth. If the motor shaft rotates at 700 ​rpm, what is the spee
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

203 rpm

Step-by-step explanation:

The speed of the larger gear can be calculated using the following equation:

v = \omega*R  

<u>Where</u>:

ω: is the angular velocity of the motor = 700 rpm

R: is the gear ratio

The gear ratio is the following:

R = \frac{n_{(a)}}{n_{(b)}}  

<u>Where:</u>

n(a): is the number of teeth on the small gear = 12 teeth  

n(b): is the number of teeth on the larger gear = 42 teeth

The gear ratio is:

R = \frac{12}{42} = 0.29

Now, the speed of the larger gear is:

v = \omega*R = 700 rpm*0.29 = 203 rpm

Therefore, the speed of the larger gear is 203 rpm.

I hope it helps you!

Select the correct answer. consider this absolute value function. if function f is written as a piecewise function, which piece
Elanso [62]

x + 3, x > -3 is the piece which will be included in the given function          f(x) = [ x + 3 ]. This can be obtained by removing modulus and finding the value for x.

<h3>Which piece will the function include?</h3>

Given that,  

f(x) = [ x + 3 ] which is an absolute value function.

Therefore,

| x+3 | > 0

By removing the modulus,

x+3 > 0

x > - 3

Hence x + 3, x > -3 is the piece which will be included in the given function          f(x) = [ x + 3 ].
