Answer:

10.4 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Write an equation for the total cost paid as a function of the # of miles driven:

L(x) = $6.75 + ($3.20/mile)x

and set this equal to $40.03 to determine the # of miles Lupita rode:

L(x) = $6.75 + ($3.20/mile)x = $40.03

Isolate the x term by subtracting $6.75 from both sides:

($3.20/mile)x = $40.03 - $6.75 = $33.28

Finally, divide both sides by  ($3.20/mile):

x = $33.28 /  ($3.20/mile)

  =  10.4 miles

Lupita rode 10.4 miles in the taxi.

Find the shortest distance, d, from the point (5, 0, −6) to the plane x + y + z = 6.
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

\frac{7}{\sqrt{3}}

Step-by-step explanation:

The shortest distance d, of a point (a, b, c) from a plane mx + ny + tz = r is given by:

d = |\frac{(ma + nb + tc - r)}{\sqrt{m^2 + n^2 + t^2}} |                   --------------------(i)

From the question,

the point is (5, 0, -6)

the plane is x + y + z = 6

Therefore,

a = 5

b = 0

c = -6

m = 1

n = 1

t = 1

r = 6

Substitute these values into equation (i) as follows;

d = |\frac{((1*5) + (1*0) + (1 * (-6)) - 6)}{\sqrt{1^2 + 1^2 + 1^2}} |

d = |\frac{((5) + (0) + (-6) - 6)}{\sqrt{1 + 1 + 1}} |

d = |\frac{(-7)}{\sqrt{3}} |

d = \frac{7}{\sqrt{3}}

Therefore, the shortest distance from the point to the plane is  d = \frac{7}{\sqrt{3}}
