Answer:
x = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
............................
First of all get a picture of what this looks like. Desmos is a pretty good graphing program, but anything that will do polar coordinates will work.
Here is the graph.
What you can see is that this graph is symmetrical around the x axis.
When you talk about symmetry, you can think of it as taking a mirror and putting it where you think there is symmetry. If you can't tell the difference between the image and the real thing, then you have symmetry.
In this case, the mirror will show symmetry along the x axis and no where else.
Ok, so in order to get tax on something you multiply the amount by the amount of tax in decimal form and then add back the original amount. So for this, you'd start with 8.64*0.07, which equals 0.6048. This rounds to 0.60. 8.64+0.60=9.24
So, he would owe $9.24 total.
The complete question is
A colony of <span>2^120 bacteria occupies a total volume of </span><span>1.3 x 10^15 m^3. The surface area of a planet is approximately 5.42 x 10^14 m^2. </span>
<span>Complete parts (a) and (b) below. </span>
<span>a) Assume that the bacteria are distributed uniformly over the planet's surface. How deep would the bacterial layer be? (You can find the approximate depth by dividing the bacteria volume by the planet's surface area.) </span>
<span>____m </span>
<span>b) Would the bacteria be knee-deep, more than knee-deep, or less than knee-deep? </span>
<span>A. The bacteria would be less than knee-deep. </span>
<span>B. The bacteria would be more than knee-deep. </span>
<span>C. The bacteria would be knee-deep. </span>
<span>D. It depends on the height of the person
</span>
Part a)
Find the approximate depth
<span>= (bacteria volume / planet surface area) </span>
<span>= (1.3 x 10^15 m³) / (5.42 x 10^14 m²) </span>
<span>= 2.4 m
</span>
the answer Part a) is
2.4 m
Part b)
No information is given about the height of the 'people' on this planet, and hence we cannot guess at their average knee height.
<span>2.4 meters is about 7.9 feet. That is obviously above the knee for any human, but. again, the question does not explicitly state that we are talking about Earth and humans
</span>
therefore
the answer part b) is the option
D. It depends on the height of the person
Again A because that rule applies to what I said before in the other 2 questions you asked.
