Answer:
2 sets of possible solutions:
x=3, y = 5
and
x=-1, y = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the graphical method, (see attached)
you can graph both equations and find their intersection points.
From the attached plot, you can see that the graphs intersect at (3,5) and (-1,-3)
Alternatively, you can solve this numerically by solving the following system of equations. You will get the same answer.
y = 2x + 1 ------------------- eq. (1)
y = x² - 4 ------------------- eq. (2)
In this question, it is given that An inverse trigonometric function is used to find the value of an unknown obtuse angle in a triangle. The inverse function returns the angle 68°.
Since the angle is obtuse angle, it means the measurement of the angle is greater then 90 degree. And to find the angle measurement, we have to subtract the given angle from 180 degree.
So the unknown angle is
And that's the required answer .
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
The volume of a sphere:
r - the radius
The diameter is twice the radius.

The exact volume of the sphere is 7776π in³.
