Answer:

q(x,y,z)=16x^{2}-5y^{2}-5z^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

The given quadratic form is of the form

q(x,y,z)=ax^2+by^2+dxy+exz+fyz.

Where a=11,b=-1,c=-4,d=-16,e=8,f=-4.Every quadratic form of this kind can be written as

q(x,y,z)={\bf x}^{T}A{\bf x}=ax^2+by^2+cz^2+dxy+exz+fyz=\left(\begin{array}{ccc}x&y&z\end{array}\right) \left(\begin{array}{ccc}a&\frac{1}{2} d&\frac{1}{2} e\\\frac{1}{2} d&b&\frac{1}{2} f\\\frac{1}{2} e&\frac{1}{2} f&c\end{array}\right) \left(\begin{array}{c}x&y&z\end{array}\right)

Observe that A is a symmetric matrix. So A is orthogonally diagonalizable, that is to say,  D=Q^{T}AQ where Q is an orthogonal matrix and D is a diagonal matrix.

In our case we have:

A=\left(\begin{array}{ccc}11&(\frac{1}{2})(-16) &(\frac{1}{2}) (8)\\(\frac{1}{2}) (-16)&(-1)&(\frac{1}{2}) (-4)\\(\frac{1}{2}) (8)&(\frac{1}{2}) (-4)&(-4)\end{array}\right)=\left(\begin{array}{ccc}11&-8 &4\\-8&-1&-2\\4&-2&-4\end{array}\right)

The eigenvalues of A are \lambda_{1}=16,\lambda_{2}=-5,\lambda_{3}=-5.

Every symmetric matriz is orthogonally diagonalizable. Applying the process of diagonalization by an orthogonal matrix we have that:

Q=\left(\begin{array}{ccc}\frac{4}{\sqrt{21}}&-\frac{1}{\sqrt{17}}&\frac{8}{\sqrt{357}}\\\frac{-2}{\sqrt{21}}&0&\sqrt{\frac{17}{21}}\\\frac{1}{\sqrt{21}}&\frac{4}{\sqrt{17}}&\frac{2}{\sqrt{357}}\end{array}\right)

D=\left(\begin{array}{ccc}16&0&0\\0&-5&0\\0&0&-5\end{array}\right)

Now, we have to do the change of variables {\bf x}=Q{\bf y} to obtain

q({\bf x})={\bf x}^{T}A{\bf x}=(Q{\bf y})^{T}AQ{\bf y}={\bf y}^{T}Q^{T}AQ{\bf y}={\bf y}^{T}D{\bf y}=\lambda_{1}y_{1}^{2}+\lambda_{2}y_{2}^{2}+\lambda_{3}y_{3}^{2}=16y_{1}^{2}-5y_{2}^{2}-5y_{3}^2

Which can be written as:

q(x,y,z)=16x^{2}-5y^{2}-5z^{2}

Three fourths a number plus 8 is 20 less than the number
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

Equation:  \frac{3}{4}n+8=n-20

Solve for n:  n = 112

Step-by-step explanation:

To first set up the equation, you need to look at the verbal description and translate into numbers and operations:

'three fourths a number' =  \frac{3}{4} n

'plus 8' = + 8

'is' =

'20 less' = - 20

'the number' = n

Put the expressions together:

'three fourths a number plus 8':  \frac{3}{4}n+8

'20 less than the number': n - 20

Set them equal to each other and solve: \frac{3}{4}n+8=n-20

Add 20 to both sides: \frac{3}{4}n+8+20=n-20+20

Subtract \frac{3}{4}n from both sides: \frac{3}{4}n-\frac{3}{4}n+28=n-\frac{3}{4}n

Multiply both sides by \frac{4}{1}: \frac{4}{1}28=\frac{1}{4}n\frac{4}{1}

Solve for n:  n = 112
