The wheel hub is the mounting point for the wheel and tire assembly. The wheel hub can rotate while being held stable by the steering knuckle which applies the motion of the control arms to the wheels.

Tension is a force that stretches or elongates something. When a cable or rope is used to pull an object, for example, it stretches internally as it accepts the weight that it's moving. Although tension is often treated as applying equally to all parts of a material, it's greater at the places where the material is under the most stress.

To solve this equation, repeatedly do the same thing to both sides of the equation until the variable is isolated on one side of the equal sign and the answer on the other.

-6c + 9 = -7 + 7c
-6c = -7 + 7c - 9
-6c - 7c = -7 - 9
-13c = -16
c = \( \frac{-16}{-13} \)
c = 1\(\frac{3}{13}\)

Wrenches are used with threaded fasteners like bolts and nuts. A bolt has external threads while a nut has internal threads and this thread pattern combination allows them to lock together and act as fasteners. Nuts come in a variety of configurations including wing nuts which provide appendages that allow tightening and loosening by hand, slotted nuts that use a cotter pin to lock the nut in place and prevent it from loosening, and lock nuts that also prevent loosening via nylon in their threads. Threads are identified by pitch which is the number of threads per inch.

According to the Pythagorean theorem, the hypotenuse squared is equal to the sum of the two perpendicular sides squared:

c² = a² + b²
c² = 8² + 4²
c² = 64 + 16
c² = 80
c = \( \sqrt{80} \)

To multiply terms with radicals, multiply the coefficients and radicands separately:

7\( \sqrt{4} \) x 6\( \sqrt{4} \)
(7 x 6)\( \sqrt{4 \times 4} \)
42\( \sqrt{16} \)

Now we need to simplify the radical:

42\( \sqrt{16} \)
42\( \sqrt{4^2} \)
(42)(4)

The two largest veins in the body, the venae cavae, pass blood to the right ventricle which pumps the blood to the lungs through the pulmonary artery. Blood picks up oxygen in the lungs and returns it to the left atrium via the pulmonary vein.
