Answer:

We can take 2 plates , 3 plates or 6 plates.

Step-by-step explanation:

1 dozen = 12 numbers

Total number of cookies = 42

Each plate has to get atleast 7 cookies ,all the plates should have the same number of cookies and also the number of plates must be greater than or equal to 2.

  • If we take 2 plates , there can be 21 cookies in each.
  • If we take 3 plates , there can be 14 cookies in each.
  • If we take 6 plates , there can be 7 cookies in each.

These are the 3 possible cases.

Since there cannot be broken pieces, no other combination is possible.

(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>⟩

How you know that the values of the digit in the numbers 1500,000 and 100,500 ate not the same
Sliva [168]

In this number 1500,000,

1 is at million place and 5 is at hundred thousand place

So, the value of 1 = 1 (1,000,000) = 1 million

And the value of 5  = 5 (100,000 ) = 500,000 = Five hundred thousand

In the second number 100,500

1 is at hundred thousand place and 5 is at hundred place

The value of 1 = 1 (100,000) = 100,000 = Hundred thousand

And the value of 5  = 5 (100 ) = 500 = Five hundred

Since the digits 1 and 5 both are at different places in both the numbers so 1,500,000 and 100,500 are not the same.
