Check that the point (1,-1,2) lies on the given surface. Then, viewing the surface as a level surface for a function f(x,y,z), f

ind a vector normal to the surface and an equation for the tangent plane to the surface at (1,-1,2).
2x^2-3y^2+z^2=3.

Answer:

(1,-1,2) lies on the surface.

Therefore a vector to the normal to the surface is

\hat{n}=2\hat{i}+3\hat{j}+2\hat{k}

Therefore the equation of tangent plane is

2x+3y+2z=3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation of surface is

2x²-3y²+z²=3

Given point is (1,-1,2)

To check that whether the point lies on the surface or not .

We have to put x=1 , y= -1 and z= 2 in the given surface.

L.H.S

2(1)²-3(-1)²+2²

=2-3+4

=3 = R.H.S

Since the point (1,-1,2) point satisfies the equation.

Therefore (1,-1,2) lies on the surface.

Here f(x,y,z)= 2x²-3y²+z²

To find the a vector normal to the surface we have to find

f_x=\frac{\partial f }{\partial x}    [ where only variable is x]

f_y=\frac{\partial f }{\partial y}    [ where only variable y]

f_z=\frac{\partial f }{\partial z}   [ where only variable z]

f_x=\frac{\partial f }{\partial x}=\frac{\partial  }{\partial x}(2x^2-3y^2+z^2)   = 4x

f_y=\frac{\partial f }{\partial y}=\frac{\partial  }{\partial y}(2x^2-3y^2+z^2)=-6y

f_z=\frac{\partial f }{\partial z}=\frac{\partial  }{\partial z}(2x^2-3y^2+z^2)=2z

The gradient at (1,-1,2)

\bigtriangledown f(1,-1,2)\\= (4\times 1)\hat{i} +[-6\times (-1)]\hat{j}+(2\times 2)\hat{k}   [ putting x=1,y=-1 and z=2 in

=4\hat{i}+6\hat{j}+4\hat{k}                                       f_x,f_y \ and \ f_z]

Therefore a vector to the normal to the surface is

\hat{n}=4\hat{i}+6\hat{j}+4\hat{k}

or,\hat{n}=2\hat{i}+3\hat{j}+2\hat{k}       [ remove the common part= 2]

The equation of tangent plane is

\vec{r}.\hat{n}=\vec {a}.\hat{n}

\vec{r}= x\hat{i}+y\hat{j}+z\hat{k}

\hat{n} = normal vector

\vec{a} = the position vector of the given point

Here \hat{n}=2\hat{i}+3\hat{j}+2\hat{k}    and   \vec a= \hat i-\hat j+2\hat k

Therefore the equation of tangent plane is

( x\hat{i}+y\hat{j}+z\hat{k}).(2\hat{i}+3\hat{j}+2\hat{k})=( \hat i-\hat j+2\hat k). (2\hat{i}+3\hat{j}+2\hat{k})

⇒2.x+3.y+2.z=(1.2)+(-1)(3)+2.2

⇒2x+3y+2z=2-3+4

⇒2x+3y+2z=3

The sum of adjacent angles on a straight line would be 180°.

Since x is on a straight line,what we need to do is to deduct the remaining two angles,here's what the equation would be like:

180°-90°-30°
=60°

Thus,x=60°

hope it helps!

Jordan’s family exchanged 250 dollars for 5000 pesos.
Effectus [21]

The number of dollars for one peso is 20 dollars.

Exchange rate is the rate at which one currency is exchanged for another currency.

In order to determine how many pesos can be exchanged for a dollar, the value of pesos would be divided by the amount of dollars exchanged.

Exchange rate = 5000 / 250 = 20 dollars

This means that 1 peso would be exchanged for 20 dollars.

How does one find the inverse function of f(x)= <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B3x-1%7D" id="TexFormula1" tit
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

\displaystyle f^{-1}(x)=\frac{1+x}{3x}

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>The Inverse of a Function</u>

The procedure to find the inverse of the function is:

* Write the function as a two-variable equation:

\displaystyle y=\frac{1}{3x-1}

* Solve the equation for x.

Multiply by 3x-1

y(3x-1)=1

Divide by y:

\displaystyle 3x-1=\frac{1}{y}

Sum 1:

\displaystyle 3x=\frac{1}{y}+1

Operate the right side:

\displaystyle 3x=\frac{1+y}{y}

Divide by 3:

\displaystyle x=\frac{1+y}{3y}

* Swap the variables:

\displaystyle y=\frac{1+x}{3x}

Write back into function form:

\boxed{\displaystyle f^{-1}(x)=\frac{1+x}{3x}}
