The span of 3 vectors can have dimension at most 3, so 9 is certainly not correct.

Check whether the 3 vectors are linearly independent. If they are not, then there is some choice of scalars c_1,c_2,c_3 (not all zero) such that

c_1 (2,-1,1) + c_2 (3,1,1) + c_3 (1,2,0) = (0,0,0)

which leads to the system of linear equations,

\begin{cases} 2c_1 + 3c_2 + c_3 = 0 \\ -c_1 + c_2 + 2c_3 = 0 \\ c_1 + c_2 = 0 \end{cases}

From the third equation, we have c_1=-c_2, and substituting this into the second equation gives

-c_1 + c_2 + 2c_3 = 2c_2 + 2c_3 = 0 \implies c_2 + c_3 = 0 \implies c_2 = -c_3

and in turn, c_1=c_3. Substituting these into the first equation gives

2c_1 + 3c_2 + c_3 = 2c_3 - 3c_3 + c_3 = 0 \implies 0=0

which tells us that any value of c_3 will work. If c_3 = t, then c_1=t and c_2 = -t. Therefore the 3 vectors are not linearly independent, so their span cannot have dimension 3.

Repeating the calculations above while taking only 2 of the given vectors at a time, we see that they are pairwise linearly independent, so the span of each pair has dimension 2. This means the span of all 3 vectors taken at once must be 2.

A regular hexagonal prism has an edge length 12 cm, and height 10 cm. Identify the volume of the prism to the nearest tenth.
Alexeev081 [22]

Check the picture below.

so the volume will simply be the area of the hexagonal face times the height.

\textit{area of a regular polygon}\\\\ A=\cfrac{1}{4}ns^2\stackrel{\qquad degrees}{\cot\left( \frac{180}{n} \right)}~~ \begin{cases} n=\stackrel{number~of}{sides}\\ s=\stackrel{length~of}{side}\\[-0.5em] \hrulefill\\ n=6\\ s=12 \end{cases}\implies A=\cfrac{1}{4}(6)(12)^2\cot\left( \frac{180}{6} \right) \\\\\\ A=216\cot(30^o)\implies A=216\sqrt{3} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \stackrel{\textit{area of the hexagon}}{(216\sqrt{3})}~~\stackrel{height}{(10)}\implies 2160\sqrt{3}~~\approx ~~3741.2~cm^3

What is the point-slope form of a line with a slope -3 that contains the point (10,-1)
Citrus2011 [14]
<h2>y + 1 = -3(x - 10)</h2>

Here's the formula:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

Substitute numbers accordingly:

y1: so 1 goes in the y1 spot (you switch the signs because it was already negative)

x1:  and 10 goes to the x1 spot

m:  -3 belongs in m

Give the following equation in point slopr form, what is the slope of the line?
AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

Slope= 3

Step-by-step explanation:

y - 4= 3(x+6)

y - 4= 3x + 18   distributive property

y - 4(+4) = 3x + 18(+4)  

cancel out the 4 with its oposite and apply to both sides.

y = 3x + 22   final answer

Remember the slope intersept equation... y=mx+b

m is slope

b means the y-intersept.

So the final slope of the line is 3. (demostrated by graph below)
