Question

A gear ratio r: s is the ratio of the number of teeth of two connected gears. The ratio of the number of revolutions per minute (rpm) of two gear wheels is s: r. In the diagram below, Gear A is turned by a motor. The turning of Gear A causes Gears B  and C to turn as well.

If Gear A is rotated by the motor at a rate of 100 rpm, what is the number of revolutions per minute for Gear C?

  1. 50
  2. 110
  3. 200
  4. 1,000

The correct answer is: 200


    Since Gear A has 20 teeth and
    Gear B has 60 teeth for
    Gear A and B is 20 : 60
    Thus the ratio of the number of revolutions per minute (rpm) for the two gears in 60 : 20, (or) 3 : 1
    That is, when gear A turns at 3 rpm, Gear B turns at 1 pm.
    Similarly,
    Since gear B has 60 teeth and
    Gear C has 10 teeth,
    The gear ratio for gear B and C is 60 : 10 and the ratio of the rpms for the two  gears is 10 : 60
    When gear B turns at 1 rpm, gear C turns at 6 rpm.
    ∴ if gear A turns at 100 rpm, then gear B turns at  100 over 3 rpm, and gear C turns at 100x6 =                                                                         200rpm.

    The graph above shows the positions of Paul and Mark during a race. Paul and  Mark each ran at a constant rate, and Mark was given a head start to shorten the distance he needed to run. Paul finished the race in 6 seconds, and Mark finished the race in 10 seconds. According to the graph, Mark was given a head start of how many yards?

    The graph of a y-intercept is the point at which the graph intersects the y-axis. We know that any point on the y-axis has an x-coordinate of 0. As a result, the x-coordinate of a y-intercept is 0.
    The steps for determining the y-intercept of a function y = f (x),
    • We simply replace x = 0 in it.
    • Determine y.
    • as the point, represent the y-intercept (0, y).
    Here are some y-intercept examples.
    • The y-intercept of y = 5x² + 2 is (0, 2) because we get y = 5(0)² + 2 = 2 when we substitute x = 0.
    • The y-intercept of y = -5ex is (0, -5) because we get y = -5e0 = -5 when we substitute x = 0.

    When designing a stairway, an architect can use the riser-tread formula 2h + d =  25, where h is the riser height, in inches, and d is the tread depth, in inches. For any given stairway, the riser heights are the same and the tread depths are the same for all steps in that stairway.
    The number of steps in a stairway is the number of its risers. For example, there are 5 steps in the stairway in the figure above. The total rise of a stairway is the sum of the riser heights as shown in the figure.
    An architect wants to use the riser-tread formula to design a stairway with a total rise of 9 feet, a riser height between 7 and 8 inches, and an odd number of steps.  With the architect’s constraints, which of the following must be the tread depth, in inches, of the stairway? (1 foot = 12 inches)

    An architect can apply the riser-tread formula '2h + d = 25', where h is the height of the riser and d is the depth of tread in inches while creating a stairway. The riser heights and tread depths for every step in a staircase are the same for that staircase.
    A stairway's riser count equals the number of steps it has. For instance, the stairs have five steps. A staircase's overall rise equals the sum of its riser heights.
