A parallel plate capacitor has plates of area $A$ separated by distance $d$ between them. It is filled with a dielectric which has a dielectric constant that varies as $\mathrm{k}(\mathrm{x})=\mathrm{K}(1+\alpha \mathrm{x})$ where $\mathrm{x}$ is the distance measured from one of the plates. If $(\alpha \text {d)}<<1,$ the total capacitance of the system is best given by the expression
