Answer:

C) 3.58

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between two parallel lines r1 and r2 is given by the absolute value of:

d(r_1,r_2)=\frac{ax_1+by_1+c}{\sqrt{a^{2}+b^{2}}}

Where a, b and c are the coefficients of the general form of the equation of the line r2 and x1 and y2 are the coordinates of one point that belongs to the line r1.

Let's call r1 the line define by: y = 2x +4 and r2 the line define by y=2x-4

So, the general form of the equation of line r2 is:

y = 2x - 4

0 = 2x - 4 - y

0 = 2x - y - 4

With this equation, a is equal to 2, b is equal to -1 and c is equal to -4.

Now, we need to found a point that belongs to line r1. This point can be found replacing x for any value and found y. If x is cero, for example, y is:

y = 2x +4

y = 2*0 + 4

y = 4

So, our point (x1, y1) is (0,4).

Replacing values of the equation of d(r1,r2), we get:

d(r_1,r_2)=\frac{(2*0)+(-1*4)+(-4)}{\sqrt{2^{2}+(-1)^{2}}}=

d(r_1,r_2)=\frac{-8}{\sqrt{5}} = -3.58

Then, the absolute value of -3.58 is 3.58, so the distance between the two parallel lines is 3.58.

Verify that the points are the vertices of a parallelogram, and find its area. A(1, 1, 3), B(2, −5, 6), C(4, −2, −1), D(3, 4, −4
almond37 [142]

Answer:

Area = 71.3 sq unit

Step-by-step explanation:

a) We will use properties of parallelogram to verify the given vertices.

Property: Have a pair of parallel opposite sides

Hence, vectors AB AD BD BC CD AC. A pair should be parallel:

vectors

AB = A - B = (1, 1 , 3) - ( 2 , -5 , 6 ) = (-1 , 6 , -3)

AD = A - D = (1, 1 , 3) - (3, 4 , -4) = (-2 , -3 , 7)

BC = B - C = (2 , -5 , 6) - (4, -2 , -1) = (-2 ,-3 , 7)

CD = C - D = (4, -2 , -1) - (3, 4 , -4) = (1 , -6 , 3)

Hence we can see  that AB //CD and AD // BC as their unit vector co-efficents are identical/scalar multiple of each other.

b)

Equation of line AB = (1,1,3) + t*(-1 , 6 , -3 )

Point E = (1-t , 1+6t , 3 -3t) ... denotes an position of point E on line AB.

Choose a point on line CD, lets suppose C = ( 4 , -2 , -1 )

Vector EC = ( 1-t , 1+6t , 3-3t ) - (4 , -2 , -1 ) = (-3 -t , 3 +6t , 4 -3t)

For EC to be perpendicular to AB then dot product of AB . EC = 0

Hence,

EC . AB = -1 * (-3-t) -2*(3+6t) -3*(4-3t) = 0

3 + t -6 -12t -12+9t = 0

-2t-3 = 0

t = -3/2

Vector EC = (-3 -t , 3 +6t , 4 -3t) = (-1.5 , -6 , 8.5)

Area = magnitude (AB) * magnitude (EC)

Area = sqrt ((-1)^2 + 6^2 + (-3)^2) * sqrt ((-1.5)^2 + 6^2 + (8.5)^2)

Area = sqrt (46) * sqrt (442) / 2

Area = 71.3 unit^2

Which steps should be taken to solve the equation
Leviafan [203]

Answer:

Remove 1 x-tile from both sides.

Remove 3 unit tiles from both sides.

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 3 = x + 5

First we want all the variables on one side

Subtract x from each side so Remove 1 x-tile from both sides.

x+3 = 5

Now we need to get all the constants on the same side

Subtract 3 from each side so Remove 3 unit tiles from both sides.

x = 5-3

x=2
