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

Solve the equation log4(x + 20) = 3
andre [41]

Answer:

x = 44

Step-by-step explanation:

log4(x + 20) = 3

Raise each side to the power of 4

4^ log4(x + 20) = 4^3

x+20 = 4^3

x+20 = 64

Subtract 20 from each side

x+20-20 = 64-20

x = 44

pasta sauce: 1.5 pound jar @ $3

x = number of pasta package
y = number of jar of pasta sauce

Constraint on the weight:
x + 1.5y <u><</u> 20

Constraint on the cost of purchase.

Which shows the expression below in simplified form? (7 × 10-3) - (2.3 × 10-6) A. 6.9977 × 10-3 B. 6.99977 × 10-3 C. 6.9977 × 10
rosijanka [135]

Option A

(7 \times 10^{-3}) - (2.3 \times 10^{-6}) = 6.9977 \times 10^{-3}

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given expression is:

(7 \times 10^{-3}) - (2.3 \times 10^{-6})

To evaluate the expression, let us make the exponent of 10 same

2.3 \times 10^{-6} = 0.0023 \times 10^{-6+3} = 0.0023 \times 10^{-3}

[ Here, decimal point is moved three times left, so add 3 ]

Therefore,

(7 \times 10^{-3}) - (2.3 \times 10^{-6}) = (7 \times 10^{-3}) - (0.0023 \times 10^{-3})

\text{Take the } 10^{-3} \text{ as common }

(7 \times 10^{-3}) - (0.0023 \times 10^{-3}) = 10^{-3}(7-0.0023)\\\\\text{ Solve for terms inside the bracket }\\\\(7 \times 10^{-3}) - (0.0023 \times 10^{-3}) = 10^{-3} \times 6.9977\\\\\text{Therefore, the simplified expression is: }\\\\(7 \times 10^{-3}) - (0.0023 \times 10^{-3}) = 6.9977 \times 10^{-3}

Thus Option A is correct
