<h3>Answer: 10%</h3>

2/20 = 0.10 = 10%

Note that 10% of 20 = 0.10*20 = 2 dollars is the sales tax to help confirm the answer.

The gravitational force exerted by the planet Earth on a unit mass at a distance r from the center of the planet is F(r) = GMr R

bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

Yes the function is continuous.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$F(r)=\frac{GMr}{R^{3}}(r< R)$ and $F(r)=\frac{GM}{r^{2}}(r\geq R)$

For a function to be continuous we should have

$\lim_{r\rightarrow R^{-}}F(r)=\lim_{r\rightarrow R^{+}}F(r)$

Thus

$\lim_{r\rightarrow R^{-}}F(r)=\frac{GMR}{R^{3}}=\frac{GM}{R^{2}}$

Similarly we have

$\lim_{r\rightarrow R^{+}}F(r)=\frac{GM}{R^{2}}$

thus we can see that

$\lim_{r\rightarrow R^{-}}F(r)=\lim_{r\rightarrow R^{+}}F(r)$

Hence the function is continuous.

In general, the intercept of the function F(X) = a•b^x is the point

Murljashka [212]

Answer:

$(0,a)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$f(x) = ab^x$

Required

Determine the intercept

The intercept is at point: $x = 0$

So, we have:

$f(0) = ab^0$

$f(0) = a*1$

$f(0) = a$

So, the intercept is at point $(0,a)$

Solve for r. <br><br> √2/3r + 1 = 23

Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

2nd option

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{\sqrt{2} }{3}$ r + 1 = 23 ( subtract 1 from both sides )

$\frac{\sqrt{2} }{3}$ r = 22 ( multiply both sides by 3 to clear the fraction )

$\sqrt{2}$ r = 66 ( divide both sides by $\sqrt{2}$ )

r = $\frac{66}{\sqrt{2} }$ × $\frac{\sqrt{2} }{\sqrt{2} }$ ( rationalising the denominator )

r = $\frac{66\sqrt{2} }{2}$ = 33 $\sqrt{2}$
