The three points give you three equations, which you can solve by your favorite method.
.. 0m +0n +b = 6
.. 1m +0n +b = -3
.. 0m +2n +b = 5
(m, n, b) = (-9, -1/2, 6)
so the equation of the plane can be written as
.. z = -9x -1/2y +6
_____
In standard form, this would be
.. 18x +y +2z = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
gradient = slope or several other words.
it describes how strongly a line (or tangent to a bent curve) is going up or down or ... if it is changing at all.
it is represented by the ratio
(y coordinate change / x coordinate change)
when going from one point on the line to another.
in our case, when going from A to B we have
x changes by -2k (from 3k to k).
y changes by -11 (from 8 to -3).
so, the gradient or slope is
-11/-2k = 3
11/2k = 3
11 = 3×2k = 6k
k = 11/6
A = (33/6, 8) = (11/2, 8)
B = (11/6, -3)
Let's find the derivative of that hyperbola in order to find a slope formula to help us with this equation. We already have an x and y value. The derivative is found this way:
so
. The derivative supplies us with the slope formula we need to write the equation. Sub in the x value of 3 to find what the slope is:
. So in our slope-intercept equation, x = 3, y = 1, and m = -1/3. Use these values to solve for b.
so b = 2. The equation, then, for the line tangent to that hyperbola at that given point is
So,
Simply divide 12 by 18.
The experimental probability of tossing heads was 2 out of 3.
