Answer:

A.  ∠ QPR = 17°

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information, let QP be the length of the ramp.

Then, ∠ QPR is the angle between the ramp and the ground.

∠ PQR is the angle between the ramp and the doorpost and

∠ QRP is the angle between the doorpost and the ground.

Clearly, ∠ PQR = 73° (given)

∠ QRP = 90° (since doorpost and the ground are perpendicular to each other)

Now, use triangle sum propoerty of ΔQPR, we get,

∠ QPR + ∠ PQR + ∠ QRP = 180°

∠ QPR + 73 + 90 = 180°

∠ QPR + 163 = 180°

∠ QPR = 180 - 163

∠ QPR = 17°

The graph of the parent function y = x cubed is horizontally stretched by a factor of One-fifth and reflected over the y-axis. W
sasho [114]

Answer: OPTION D.

Step-by-step explanation:

Below are some transformations for a function f(x):

If -f(x), then the function is reflected over the x-axis.

If f(-x), then the function is reflected over the y-axis.

If f(bx)  and b>1, then the function is horizontally compressed.

If  f(bx)  and 0 < b, then the function is horizontally stretched.

In this case you know that the parent function is:

y=x^3

According to the information given in the exercise, the parent function IS horizontally stretched by a factor of \frac{1}{5} and it is also reflected over the y-axis.

Therefore, based on the transformations explained before, you can notice that the transformation is:

f(-bx)

Where 0 < b

Therefore, the equation of the transformed function is:

y=(-\frac{1}{5}x)^ 3

estimate 0.00792398 to the nearest thousandth. Express your answer as a single-digit times a power of ten
Marianna [84]

Answer: \approx8*10^{-3}

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to round to the nearest thousandth, you must observe the digit to the right of the digit in the thousandth place and then:

  • If it is less than 5, you must round down.
  • If it is greater than or equal than 5, you must round up.

In this case, given the number:

0.00792398

You can notice that the digit to the right of the digit in the thousandth place is 9.

Since 9>5, you must round up. Then:

0.00792398\approx0.008

Finally, to express this as a single-digit times a power of ten, move the decimal point three places to the right. Then you get:

\approx8*10^{-3}
