Answer:

257 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

You know based upon soh that sin=opp/hyp

So drawing a right triangle with a hypotenuse of 400 ft and an angle of 40° with the ground, you can see that sin40=x/400

Multiply both sides to find your x value or height which is 257.

Which graph shows a negative rate of change for the interval 0 to 2 on the x-axis?
valentina_108 [34]

It seems that the four graphs are the same and they do not have a negative change rate in the interval 0 to 2 in the x-axis.

A negative change rate means that when x increases the value of the function (y) decreases; this is, the function is decreasing in the interval being estudied, which is the same that going downward.

So, you must look for in your graphs where the equation is going downward.

For example, in the graph attached, that happens in any interval from negative infitity to  1.5.

The vertex will help you to identify it.

Given that the graph goes downward from negative infinity to the vertex, any interval that includes that range will have negative change.

You must look for a parabola that opens upward and whose vertex is in x = 2.

A rectangular prism has a width of 51 ft and a volume of 144 ft3. Find the volume of a similar prism with a width of 17 ft. Roun
meriva

Answer:

5.3\ ft^3

Step-by-step explanation:

Similar shapes with scale factor k have proportional volumes with coefficient k^3 i.e.

\dfrac{V_{large}}{V_{small}}=k^3,

where

k=\dfrac{\text{width of large prism}}{\text{width of small prism}}.

Since

\text{width of large prism}=51\ ft,\\ \\\text{width of small prism}=17\ ft,

then

k=\dfrac{51}{17}=3.

Hence,

\dfrac{144}{V_{small}}=3^3\Rightarrow V_{small}=\dfrac{144}{27}=\dfrac{16}{3}=5\dfrac{1}{3}\approx 5.3\ ft^3.
