4. Earth is in thermal equilibrium. This means that our planet is radiating away exactly as much energy as it is receiving from

the Sun. This "re-radiation" from the Earth is not visible because it its peak wavelength is in the infrared part of the spectrum. Even the coldest parts of the Earth are way above absolute zero, so every square meter of Earth’s surface is radiating this energy out to space. Using the same radius given in step 2 above, and the formula for the area of a sphere, calculate the surface area of the Earth.

Answer: 5.098e14 (m)²

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for surface area of a sphere = 4πr²

Therefore;

Total surface area of the earth is = 4πr²

Radius of the earth = (6371 km)²

= 4 x 3.14 x (6371 km)²

= 12.56 x (6,371,000 m)²

Total surface area of the earth is;

answer = 5.098e14 (m)²

Answer:

5.099*10^14 m^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Earth is in thermal equilibrium. This means that our planet is radiating away exactly as much energy as it is receiving from the Sun. This "re-radiation" from the Earth is not visible because it its peak wavelength is in the infrared part of the spectrum. Even the coldest parts of the Earth are way above absolute zero, so every square meter of Earth’s surface is radiating this energy out to space. Using the same radius given in step 2 above, and the formula for the area of a sphere, calculate the surface area of the Earth.

(The radius of the Earth is 6,370,000 meters.)

The earth is spherical in shape , so we use the formula for finding the surface area of a sphere

Surface Area=4\pi r^{2}

S.A=4*3.14*6,370,000^2

S.A=4*pi*40576900000000

S.A=5.099*10^14m^2

Man occupies about one-eighth of the earth.

Select the correct expression for the phrase below.
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

52+p

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression says "add p to 52", so we know that we need to sum two values, one of them is the variable 'p', and the other is the value 52.

So, writing this expression in mathematical terms, we have:

52+p

With this expression, we added p to the number 52.

So the correct answer is the last one (the fifth one)

Graph the function y = 2x3 – x2 – 4x + 5. To the nearest tenth, over which interval is the function decreasing?
daser333 [38]
As you progress in math, it will become increasingly important that you know how to express exponentiation properly.

y = 2x3 – x2 – 4x + 5  should be written    <span>y = 2^x3 – x^2 – 4^x + 5.  The 
" ^ " symbol denotes exponentiation.

I see you're apparently in middle school.  Is that so?  If so, are you taking calculus already?  If so, nice!

Case 1:  You do not yet know calculus and have not differentiated or found critical values.  Sketch the function          </span>y = 2x^3 – x^2 – 4^x + 5, including the y-intercept at (0,5).  Can you identify the intervals on which the graph appears to be increasing and those on which it appears to be decreasing?

Case 2:  You do know differentiation, critical values and the first derivative test.  Differentiate  y = 2x^3 – x^2 – 4^x + 5 and set the derivative = to 0:

dy/dx = 6x^2 - 2x - 4 = 0.  Reduce this by dividing all terms by 2:

dy/dx = 3x^2 - x - 2 = 0    I used synthetic div. to determine that one root is x = 2/3.  Try it yourself.  This leaves the coefficients of the other factor, (3x+3); this other factor is x = 3/(-3) = -1.  Again, you should check this.

Now we have 2 roots:  -1 and 2/3

Draw a number line.  Locate the origin (0,0).  Plot the points (-1, 0) and (2/3, 0).  This subdivides the number line into 3 subintervals:

(-infinity, -1), (-1, 2/3) and (2/3, infinity).

Choose a test number from each interval and subst. it for x in the derivative formula above.  If the derivative comes out +, the function is increasing on that interval; if -, the function is decreasing.

Ask all the questions you want, if this explanation is not sufficiently clear.

Solve 6^x=1,296<br><br><br> X=__________a0
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

6^x = 1296

Take the log base 6 on each side

log6(6^x) = log6(1296)

Rewrite 1296 as 6^4

x = log 6(6^4)

We know that log( a^b) = b log (a)

x = 4 log6(6)

We know that loga(a) =1

x = 4 *a

x =4
