Answer:

See answer below

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the yz-plane represents all the points (0,y,z) , then the distance of any point (x,y,z) to the yz-plane is given by the difference vector

d= (x,y,z) - (0,y,z) = (x,0,0)

then the distance |d| is

|d|=√ ( x² + 0²+0²) = |x|

then the distance only depends on |x|. Therefore A has the minimum distance to the plane and its distance dA is

dA=|xA| =|-6| = 6

Similarly , the xy- plane represents all the points (x,y,0). Doing the same procedure , the distance is |z| . Then the point that is closest to this plane is B because

dB=|zB| =|-1| = 1

Also , for a point to lie in the xz-plane , has to be of the form (x,y,0) , that is zB=0 ( distance to the plane =0). Since neither A , B or C comply , then any of the points lie in this plane

Part A: Find a rational number that is between 7.7 and 7.9. Explain why it is rational. (2 points)
8_murik_8 [283]
A rational number is any number that can be written as the ratio between two other numbers i.e. in the form \frac{a}{b}

Part A:
An easy choice that makes sense is 7.8, right in the middle. To prove that it's rational we need to write it as a ratio. In this case we have 7.8=\frac{78}{10}

Part B:
We need a number that can't be written as a ratio (because it neither terminates nor repeats). Some common ones are \sqrt{2}, e, \phi and \pi so it makes sense to try and use those to build our number. In this case \frac{11\sqrt{2}}{5}\approx7.78 works nicely.

* One endpoint of a line segment has coordinates represented by (x + 2, 5y): The midpoint of the line segment is (6, –3).
kirill [66]

Answer:

m =  \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1}  \\  =   \frac{ - 3 - 5y}{6 - (x + 2)}  \\  =  \frac{ - 3 - 5y}{6 - x - 2}  \\  m = \frac{ - 3 - 5y}{4 - x}
