Conguence is mantained, because reflection preserve distances and angles.

Orientiation is not preserved. You can check this yourself: try to look at a watch through a mirror. You will see it going counterclockwise.

Find equations of the spheres with center(3, −4, 5) that touch the following planes.a. xy-plane b. yz- plane c. xz-plane

postnew [5]

Answer:

(a) (x - 3)² + (y + 4)² + (z - 5)² = 25

(b) (x - 3)² + (y + 4)² + (z - 5)² = 9

(c) (x - 3)² + (y + 4)² + (z - 5)² = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a sphere is given by:

(x - x₀)² + (y - y₀)² + (z - z₀)² = r² ---------------(i)

Where;

(x₀, y₀, z₀) is the center of the sphere

r is the radius of the sphere

Given:

Sphere centered at (3, -4, 5)

=> (x₀, y₀, z₀) = (3, -4, 5)

(a) To get the equation of the sphere when it touches the xy-plane, we do the following:

i. Since the sphere touches the xy-plane, it means the z-component of its centre is 0.

Therefore, we have the sphere now centered at (3, -4, 0).

Using the distance formula, we can get the distance d, between the initial points (3, -4, 5) and the new points (3, -4, 0) as follows;

$d = \sqrt{(3-3)^2+ (-4 - (-4))^2 + (0-5)^2}$

$d = \sqrt{(3-3)^2+ (-4 + 4)^2 + (0-5)^2}$

$d = \sqrt{(0)^2+ (0)^2 + (-5)^2}$

$d = \sqrt{(25)}$

d = 5

This distance is the radius of the sphere at that point. i.e r = 5

Now substitute this value r = 5 into the general equation of a sphere given in equation (i) above as follows;

(x - 3)² + (y - (-4))² + (z - 5)² = 5²

(x - 3)² + (y + 4)² + (z - 5)² = 25

Therefore, the equation of the sphere when it touches the xy plane is:

(x - 3)² + (y + 4)² + (z - 5)² = 25

(b) To get the equation of the sphere when it touches the yz-plane, we do the following:

i. Since the sphere touches the yz-plane, it means the x-component of its centre is 0.

Therefore, we have the sphere now centered at (0, -4, 5).

Using the distance formula, we can get the distance d, between the initial points (3, -4, 5) and the new points (0, -4, 5) as follows;

$d = \sqrt{(0-3)^2+ (-4 - (-4))^2 + (5-5)^2}$

$d = \sqrt{(-3)^2+ (-4 + 4)^2 + (5-5)^2}$

$d = \sqrt{(-3)^2 + (0)^2+ (0)^2}$

$d = \sqrt{(9)}$

d = 3

This distance is the radius of the sphere at that point. i.e r = 3

Now substitute this value r = 3 into the general equation of a sphere given in equation (i) above as follows;

(x - 3)² + (y - (-4))² + (z - 5)² = 3²

(x - 3)² + (y + 4)² + (z - 5)² = 9

Therefore, the equation of the sphere when it touches the yz plane is:

(x - 3)² + (y + 4)² + (z - 5)² = 9

(b) To get the equation of the sphere when it touches the xz-plane, we do the following:

i. Since the sphere touches the xz-plane, it means the y-component of its centre is 0.

Therefore, we have the sphere now centered at (3, 0, 5).

Using the distance formula, we can get the distance d, between the initial points (3, -4, 5) and the new points (3, 0, 5) as follows;

$d = \sqrt{(3-3)^2+ (0 - (-4))^2 + (5-5)^2}$

$d = \sqrt{(3-3)^2+ (0+4)^2 + (5-5)^2}$

$d = \sqrt{(0)^2 + (4)^2+ (0)^2}$

$d = \sqrt{(16)}$

d = 4

This distance is the radius of the sphere at that point. i.e r = 4

Now substitute this value r = 4 into the general equation of a sphere given in equation (i) above as follows;

(x - 3)² + (y - (-4))² + (z - 5)² = 4²

(x - 3)² + (y + 4)² + (z - 5)² = 16

Therefore, the equation of the sphere when it touches the xz plane is:

(x - 3)² + (y + 4)² + (z - 5)² = 16

7 lbs of sour candies cost $7.00. What is the unit price?

grandymaker [24]

Answer:

$1 per lb

Step-by-step explanation:

If you divide the cost by the amount you are getting, then you get the unit rate. So, since 7 divided by 7.00 is 1.00, then the cost per pound is $1.00

How do I turn this equation into standard form?<br> 8x=-5y+3

NARA [144]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To write a linear equation in standard form, move each variable term to the left side of the equation and simplify.

Ax+By=C

Since x is on the right side of the equation, switch the sides so it is on the left side of the equation.

8x−3=y

Move y to the left side of the equation because it contains a variable.

8x−3−y=0

Move 3 to the right side of the equation because it does not contain a variable.

8x−y=3

A local animal rescue organization receives an average of 0.55 rescue calls per hour. Use the Poisson distribution to find the p

andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

B) 0.894

Step-by-step explanation:

In a Poisson distribution, the probability that X represents the number of successes of a random variable is given by the following formula:

$P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}$

In which

x is the number of sucesses

e = 2.71828 is the Euler number

$\mu$ is the mean in the given interval.

A local animal rescue organization receives an average of 0.55 rescue calls per hour.

This means that $\mu = 0.55$

Probability that during a randomly selected hour, the organization will receive fewer than two calls.

$P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1)$

In which

$P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}$

$P(X = 0) = \frac{e^{-0.55}*(0.55)^{0}}{(0)!} = 0.577$

$P(X = 1) = \frac{e^{-0.55}*(0.55)^{1}}{(1)!} = 0.317$

$P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) = 0.577 + 0.317 = 0.894$
