Answer:

12.6

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer is 12.6 and here is the explanation of using the Distributive Property. Because we are multiplying a whole number by a mixed number, we have to multiply the whole number by the whole number in the mixed number and then multiply the whole number by the fraction. In this case, we have 3 x 4 1/5. We multiply 3x4=12 first, and then we multiply 3x1/5 to get 0.6. 12+0.6=12.6. Hope it helps!

Find the equation of the plane with the given description. contains the lines r1(t) = 2, 1, 0 + t, 2t, 4t and r2(t) = 2, 1, 0 +

Genrish500 [490]

The intersection point of the two lines is (2,1,0).
The respective direction vectors are
L1: <1,2,4>
L2: <4,1,15>
Since the normal vector of the required plane is perpendicular to both direction vectors, the normal vector of the plane is obtained by the cross product of L1 and L2.
i j k
1 2 4
4 1 15
=<30-4, 16-15, 1-8>
=<26, 1, -7>

We know that the plane must pass through (2,1,0), the equation of the plane is

26(x-2)+1(y-1)-7(z-0)=0
simplifying,
26x+y-7z=52+1+0=53
or
26x+y-7z=53

Check:
Put points on L1 in the plane
26(t+2)+(2t+1)-7(4t+0)=53 ok
For L2,
26(4t+2)+(t+1)-7(15t+0)=53 ok

Eric was rock climbing. At one point, he stopped and climbed straight down 2\dfrac{1}{2}2

nikitadnepr [17]

The equation that matches the given situation is $-2\frac{1}{2}+6\frac{3}{4}=?$ . So, after two moves, Eric's elevation changed $4\frac{1}{4}$ meters above.

We know that in mathematics, subtraction means removing something from a group or a number of things. What is left in the group gets smaller when we subtract. The minuend is the first element we use. The subtrahend is the part that is being removed. The difference is the portion that remains after subtraction.

Assume that "negative" means climbing down and "positive" means climbing up. We must locate the elevation change in this area.

Given that Eric climbed straight down $2\frac{1}{2}$ meters. So we can write $-2\frac{1}{2}$ .

Again Eric climbed straight up $6\frac{3}{4}$ meters. So, we can write $6\frac{3}{4}$ .

Then the change = $-2\frac{1}{2}+6\frac{3}{4}$

= $-\frac{(2*2+1)}{2}+\frac{6*4+3}{4}$

= $-\frac{5}{2} +\frac{27}{4}$

= $\frac{-(5*2)+27}{4}$

= $\frac{-10+27}{4}$

= $\frac{17}{4}$

= $\frac{4*4+1}{4}$

= $4\frac{1}{4}$

Therefore, the equation that matches the given situation is $-2\frac{1}{2}+6\frac{3}{4}=?$ . So, after two moves, Eric's elevation changed $4\frac{1}{4}$ meters above.
