Answer: Hello there!

we have the function f(x) = IxI/x

Then this function can be piecewise writen as:

f(x) = 1 if x > 0

f(x) = -1 if x < 0

because:

suposse that n is a number greater than 0, then:

f(n) = InI/n = n/n = 1

and this is independent of the number n, so for all the positive values of x, we have f(x) = 1

and

f(-n) = I-nI/(-n) = n/(-n) = -1

and again, this does not depend on the value of n, so for all the negative values of x, we have f(x) = -1.

On the other hand, the Heaviside function is defined as:

H(x) = 1 if x>0

H(x) = 0 if x<0

Then the difference is that, when the Heaviside function takes the value of 0 for negative values of x, our function f(x) takes the value of -1 for negative values of x.

Find the volume of this sphere.<br> Use 3 for T.<br> V~ [?]in3<br> V = Tr3<br> r=4in
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

The answer is 256 in^{3}.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for the volume of the sphere, start by using the sphere volume formula, which is V = \frac{4}{3}  \pi  r^{3}. However, in this formula, 3 will be used instead of    (\pi).

Next, plug in the information given from the problem, and the formula will look like V = \frac{4}{3} (3) (4 in^{3}).    

Then, solve the equation, and the answer will be 256 in^{3}.
