Y(x-1)=z divide both sides by y

x-1=z/y add 1 to both sides

x=(z/y)+1 or more neatly

x=(z+y)/y

a box of marbles can be shared equally among 6,7,or 8 students with 4 marbles left over each time.what is the least possible num

Vlad1618 [11]

If there are 4 marbles left over each time, then we can forget about them for now.

So the question is, what is the smallest number than can be divided into 6,7 and 8?

the numbers have only one non-1 divisor in common: both 6 and 8 are divisible by 3.

so for our purposes we can "delete" one 2 and ask:

what is the smallest number than can be divided into 3,7 and 8 ?

There are no more divisors in common, so we just have to multiply them: 3*7*8=21*8=168

and the 4 marbles "extra"? We add them to this sum.

the the smallest possible number in the box is 168+4=172.

Find the distance between a point (– 2, 3 – 4) and its image on the plane x+y+z=3 measured across a line (x + 2)/3 = (2y + 3)/4

dimaraw [331]

Answer:

Distance of the point from its image = 8.56 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Co-ordinates of point is (-2, 3,-4)

Let's say

$x_1\ =\ -2$

$y_1\ =\ 3$

$z_1\ =\ -4$

Distance is measure across the line

$\dfrac{x+2}{3}\ =\ \dfrac{2y+3}{4}\ =\ \dfrac{3z+4}{5}$

So, we can write

$\dfrac{x-x_1+2}{3}\ =\ \dfrac{2(y-y_1)+3}{4}\ =\ \dfrac{3(z-z_1)+4}{5}\ =\ k$

$=>\ \dfrac{x-(-2)+2}{3}\ =\ \dfrac{2(y-3)+3}{4}\ =\ \dfrac{3(z-(-4))+4}{5}\ =\ k$

$=>\ \dfrac{x+4}{3}\ =\ \dfrac{2y-3}{4}\ =\ \dfrac{3z+16}{5}\ =\ k$

$=>\ x\ =\ 3k-4,\ y\ =\ \dfrac{4k+3}{2},\ z\ =\ \dfrac{5k-16}{3}$

Since, the equation of plane is given by

x+y+z=3

The point which intersect the point will satisfy the equation of plane.

So, we can write

$3k-4+\dfrac{4k+3}{2}+\dfrac{5k-16}{3}\ =\ 3$

$=>6(3k-4)+3(4k+3)+2(5k-16)\ =\ 18$

$=>18k-24+12k+9+10k-32\ =\ 18$

$=>\ k\ =\dfrac{13}{8}$

So,

$x\ =\ 3k-4$

$=\ 3\times \dfrac{13}{8}-4$

$=\ \dfrac{7}{4}$

$y\ =\ \dfrac{4k+3}{2}$

$=\ \dfrac{4\times \dfrac{13}{8}+3}{2}$

$=\ \dfrac{19}{4}$

$z\ =\ \dfrac{5k-16}{3}$

$=\ \dfrac{5\times \dfrac{13}{8}-16}{3}$

$=\ \dfrac{-21}{8}$

Now, the distance of point from the plane is given by,

$d\ =\ \sqrt{(x-x_1)^2+(y-y_1)^2+(z-z_1)^2}$

$=\ \sqrt{(-2-\dfrac{7}{4})^2+(3-\dfrac{19}{4})^2+(-4+\dfrac{21}{8})^2}$

$=\ \sqrt{(\dfrac{-15}{4})^2+(\dfrac{-7}{4})^2+(\dfrac{9}{8})^2}$

$=\ \sqrt{\dfrac{225}{16}+\dfrac{49}{16}+\dfrac{81}{64}}$

$=\ \sqrt{\dfrac{1177}{64}}$

$=\ 4.28$

So, the distance of the point from its image can be given by,

D = 2d = 2 x 4.28

= 8.56 unit

So, the distance of a point from it's image is 8.56 units.
