Answer:

Q' = (6,3)

Step-by-step explanation:

You can think of this problem in two ways:

Graph:

I've shown my working for this, where I've counted how many units it takes to get from point Q to the axis through which im reflecting. There are 6 units between Q and the y axis, so naturally there should be 6 units between Q' and the y axis.

Coordinates:

Since this is a reflection through an axis, we can assume that the the x coordinate of point Q' will be equal and opposite to Q. Therefore, while the x coordinate of Q was -6, of Q' it's 6

Fill in the blanks to rewrite the following statement with variables: Given any positive real number, there is a positive real n

sveticcg [70]

Answer:

a) there is s such that r>s and s is positive

b) For any r>0 , there exists s>0 such that s<r

Step-by-step explanation:

a) We are given a positive real number r. We need to wite that there is a positive real number that is smaller. Call that number s. Then r>s (this is equivalent to s<r, s is smaller than r) and s is positive (or s>0 if you prefer). We fill in the blanks using the bold words.

b) The last part claims that s<r, that is, s is smaller than r. We know that this must happen for all posirive real numbers r, that is, for any r>0, there is some positive s such that s<r. In other words, there exists s>0 such that s<r.

Flying fish use their pectoral fins like airplane wings to glide through the air. Suppose a flying fish reaches a maximum height

GrogVix [38]

The flight is in the shape of a parabola with a vertex 5 feet above the water and 1/2 * 33 = 16.5 feet horizontally from the point of leaving the water

y = a(x - h)^2 + k

where (h,k) is the vertex of the parabola and here it is (5 , 16.5), so we have the function:-

y = a(x - 16.5)^2 + 5

when x = 0 y = 0 so

0 = a(-16.5)^2 + 5

which gives a = -0.018365

So our function for the flight path is

y = -0.018365(x - 16.5)^2 + 5 Answer
