Whole numbers are a subset of integers, which in turn are a subset of rational numbers.

So, every whole number is an integer, and every integer is a rational number.

So, it is possible for a rational number not to be an integer. Think of any decimal number: 1.356 is a rational number, but it's not an integer.

On the other hand, if a number is not an integer, it can't be a whole number, because all whole numbers are integers.

A plane descends 1000 ft while flying 2.7 mi. What is the angle of descent?

Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

4.02°

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle of descent can be obtained using trigonometry ;

Since we have a right angled triangle ;

Let's use the relation:

Sin θ = opposite / hypotenus

Hypotenus = 2.7 miles

1 mile = 5280 feets

2.7 miles = (2.7 * 5280) = 14256 feets

Sin θ = 1000 / 14256

Sin θ = 0.0701459

θ = sin^-1(0.0701459)

θ = 4.0223674

At what point on the paraboloid y = x2 + z2 is the tangent plane parallel to the plane 3x + 2y + 7z = 2? (if an answer does not

Nikitich [7]

If $f(x, y, z) = c$ represent a family of surfaces for different values of the constant $c$ . The gradient of the function $f$ defined as $\nabla f$ is a vector normal to the surface $f(x, y, z) = c$ .

Given the paraboloid

$y = x^2 + z^2$ .

We can rewrite it as a scalar value function f as follows:

$f(x,y,z)=x^2-y+z^2=0$

The normal to the paraboloid at any point is given by:

$\nabla f= i\frac{\partial}{\partial x}(x^2-y+z^2) - j\frac{\partial}{\partial y}(x^2-y+z^2) + k\frac{\partial}{\partial z}(x^2-y+z^2) \\ \\ =2xi-j+2zk$

Also, the normal to the given plane $3x + 2y + 7z = 2$ is given by:

$3i+2j+7k$

Equating the two normal vectors, we have:

$2x=3\Rightarrow x= \frac{3}{2} \\ \\ -1=2 \\ \\ 2z=7\Rightarrow z= \frac{7}{2}$

Since, -1 = 2 is not possible, therefore there exist no such point on the paraboloid $y = x^2 + z^2$ such that the tangent plane is parallel to the plane 3x + 2y + 7z = 2.
