Length could be 6.
Height could be 6.
Girth could be 3. 

6 X 6 = 36
36 X 3 = 108

Hope this helped!

Reika [66]

Answer: 0.10g/cm^3

Step-by-step explanation:

We can compare this with the volume of a football (soccer ball) – which has a radius of around 10.5cm, therefore a volume of around 4800 cubic centimeters.

He number of E.coli bacteria cells in a pond of stagnant water can be represented by the function below, where A represents the
denis-greek [22]

The function that represents the number of E.coli bacteria cells per 100 mL of water as t years elapses, and is missing in the question, is:

A(t)=136(1.123)^{4t}

Answer:

   Option A. 59%

Explanation:

The base, 1.123, represents the multiplicative constant rate of change of the function, so you just must substitute 1 for t in the power part of the function::

  • A(t)=136(1.123)^{4t}

  • rate=(1.123)^{4t}=(1.123)^4=1.590

Then, the multiplicative rate of change is 1.590, which means that every year the number of E.coli bacteria cells per 100 mL of water increases by a factor of 1.590, and that is 1.59 - 1 = 0.590 or 59% increase.

You can calculate it also using two consecutive values for t. For instance, use t =1 and t = 1

t=1\\\\ A(1)=136(1.123)^4\\\\\\t=2\\ \\ \\A(2)=136(1.123)^8\\ \\ \\A(2)/A(1)=1.123^8/1.1123^4=1.123^4=1.590

H(x)=-1/3x^2+2x-4 graph the equation
Andreas93 [3]

You should be able to note that this is a parabola which opens downward. Taking the derivative and setting it to -0- will yield the max of the equation, That is

y=-\frac{1}{3} x^{2} +2x-4 ⇒ \frac{dy}{dx} =-\frac{2}{3} x+2=0 ⇒ x=3
