Since you did not give the picture of the problems so it is difficult to solve the problem. but i think this problem is about similar triangles, similar triangle are triangles that have corresponding angles are congruent and their sides are in proportion.
( x / 24) = 30 /18
x = 24 ( 30 / 18 )
x = 40 ft

This might get taken down but I just want to point out how impressive it is that the person above this solved it without the picture

(a) Find a vector parallel to the line of intersection of the planes −4x+2y−z=1 and 3x−2y+2z=1.
valentinak56 [21]

Find the intersection of the two planes. Do this by solving for <em>z</em> in terms of <em>x</em> and <em>y </em>; then solve for <em>y</em> in terms of <em>x</em> ; then again for <em>z</em> but only in terms of <em>x</em>.

-4<em>x</em> + 2<em>y</em> - <em>z</em> = 1   ==>   <em>z</em> = -4<em>x</em> + 2<em>y</em> - 1

3<em>x</em> - 2<em>y</em> + 2<em>z</em> = 1   ==>   <em>z</em> = (1 - 3<em>x</em> + 2<em>y</em>)/2

==>   -4<em>x</em> + 2<em>y</em> - 1 = (1 - 3<em>x</em> + 2<em>y</em>)/2

==>   -8<em>x</em> + 4<em>y</em> - 2 = 1 - 3<em>x</em> + 2<em>y</em>

==>   -5<em>x</em> + 2<em>y</em> = 3

==>   <em>y</em> = (3 + 5<em>x</em>)/2

==>   <em>z</em> = -4<em>x</em> + 2 (3 + 5<em>x</em>)/2 - 1 = <em>x</em> + 2

So if we take <em>x</em> = <em>t</em>, the line of intersection is parameterized by

<em>r</em><em>(t)</em> = ⟨<em>t</em>, (3 + 5<em>t</em> )/2, 2 + <em>t</em>⟩

Just to not have to work with fractions, scale this by a factor of 2, so that

<em>r</em><em>(t)</em> = ⟨2<em>t</em>, 3 + 5<em>t</em>, 4 + 2<em>t</em>⟩

(a) The tangent vector to <em>r</em><em>(t)</em> is parallel to this line, so you can use

<em>v</em> = d<em>r</em>/d<em>t</em> = d/d<em>t</em> ⟨2<em>t</em>, 3 + 5<em>t</em>, 4 + 2<em>t</em>⟩ = ⟨2, 5, 2⟩

or any scalar multiple of this.

(b) (-1, -1, 1) indeed lies in both planes. Plug in <em>x</em> = -1, <em>y</em> = 1, and <em>z</em> = 1 to both plane equations to see this for yourself. We already found the parameterization for the intersection,

<em>r</em><em>(t)</em> = ⟨2<em>t</em>, 3 + 5<em>t</em>, 4 + 2<em>t</em>⟩

A mars rover traveled from point a to point b at a speed of 4 cm/sec. Worsening conditions during the return trip caused the rov
miskamm [114]

Using a system of linear equations, the distance between points A and B is 6000 cm

  • Initial speed = 4cm/sec

Time taken = Distance / speed

Let ; distance = d

<u>To</u><u> </u><u>time</u><u> </u><u>:</u><u> </u>

  • <u>t</u> = d / 4
  • <em>4t = d ______(1)</em>

<u>Fro</u><u> </u><u>time</u><u> </u><u>:</u><u> </u>

(t + 15 × 60) = d / 2.5

2.5(t + 900) = d

<em>2.5t + </em><em>2250</em><em> = d ______(2)</em>

Equate (1) and (2)

4t = 2.5t + 2250

4t - 2.5t = 2250

1.5t = 2250

t = 1500 seconds

From (1) :

d = 4t

d = 4(1500)

d = 6000 cm

Therefore, the distance from point A to B is 6000 cm

Karolina [17]

Answer:

\frac{5}{9}

Step-by-step explanation:

2 \frac{1}{9}  \div 3 \frac{4}{5}  \\  \\  =  \frac{2 \times 9 + 1}{9}  \div  \frac{3 \times 5 + 4}{5}  \\  \\  =  \frac{18 + 1}{9}  \div  \frac{15 + 4}{5}\\  \\  =  \frac{19}{9}  \div  \frac{19}{5}\\  \\  =  \frac{19}{9}  \times  \frac{5}{19} \\  \\  =  \frac{5}{9}
