Answer:

12 cards

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide 3/4 hr by 1/16 hour per card:

12/16 hr divided by 1/16 hr per card is equivalent to (12/16 hr)(16/1 card/hr),

or 12 cards. Joey can write 12 cards in 3/4 hr.

To solve this problem you will need to use the cross product method:

1/16 of an hour → write 1 card

3/4 of an hour → write X cards

(3/4) ÷ (1/16) = X

0.75 ÷ 0.0625 = X

12 = X

Joey can write 12 Thank you cards in 3/4 of an hour.

There you go! I really hope this helped, if there's anything just let me know! :)

Answer:

-2x-5y+8z+4.5=0

Step-by-step explanation:

Let (x,y,z) be the coordinates of the point lying on the needed plane. This point is equidistant from the points (-3, 5, -4) and (-5, 0, 4), so

$d_1=\sqrt{(x-(-3))^2+(y-5)^2+(z-(-4))^2}=\sqrt{(x+3)^2+(y-5)^2+(z+4)^2}\\ \\d_2=\sqrt{(x-(-5))^2+(y-0)^2+(z-4)^2}=\sqrt{(x+5)^2+y^2+(z-4)^2}\\ \\d_1=d_2\Rightarrow \sqrt{(x+3)^2+(y-5)^2+(z+4)^2}=\sqrt{(x+5)^2+y^2+(z-4)^2}\\ \\(x+3)^2+(y-5)^2+(z+4)^2=(x+5)^2+y^2+(z-4)^2\\ \\x^2+6x+9+y^2-10y+25+z^2+8z+16=x^2+10x+25+y^2+z^2-8z+16\\ \\-4x-10y+16z+9=0\\ \\-2x-5y+8z+4.5=0$
