Suppose that the functions p and q are defined as follows.p(x) = -2x + 1q(x)=-x?Find the following.
MariettaO [177]

First let us find

(q\mathrm{}p)(x)\begin{gathered} q(p(x))=q(-2x+1) \\ =-(-2x+1)^2 \\ So\text{ } \\ (q\mathrm{}p)(5)=-(-2\times5+1)^2 \\ =-(9)^2 \\ =-81 \end{gathered}

Now let;s solve the second part

\begin{gathered} (p\mathrm{}q)(x)=p(q(x)) \\ =p(-x^2) \\ =-2(-x^2)+1 \\ =2x^2+1 \\ So\text{ (p.q)(5) will be } \\ (p\mathrm{}q)(5)=2(5)^2+1 \\ =51 \end{gathered}

Ashley will tend a car for the weekend.she can choose one of two plans.the first plan has an initial fee of $49.96 and cost an a
Rom4ik [11]
First, you multiply $55.96 by $0.12 and you get $6.7152. Then, multiply $49.96 by $0.14 and you get $6.9944. If you subtract $69944-$6.7152 you get your answer which is $0.2792.

(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>⟩
