I assume there are some plus signs that aren't rendering for some reason, so that the plane should be

.
You're minimizing

subject to the constraint

. Note that

and

attain their extrema at the same values of

, so we'll be working with the squared distance to avoid working out some slightly more complicated partial derivatives later.
The Lagrangian is

Take your partial derivatives and set them equal to 0:

Adding the first three equations together yields

and plugging this into the first three equations, you find a critical point at

.
The squared distance is then

, which means the shortest distance must be

.
Answer:
18.75%
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello,
3 students are both female and senior
the total number of students is 7+10+8+5=30
so the probability to select one female senior is 3/30=1/10=0.10
probability to select one female is 16/30=16/30
probability that the student is a senior given that it's female is
=P(female and senior)/P(female)
=1/10*30/16=3/16
hope this helps
