Let P be the plane that intersects

  • x-axis at point (-5,0,0);
  • y-axis at point (0,-2,0);
  • z-axis at point (0,0,5).

Write the equation of the plane P:

\left|\begin{array}{ccc}x-(-5)&y-0&z-0\\0-(-5)&-2-0&0-0\\0-(-5)&0-0&5-0\end{array}\right|=0\Rightarrow \left|\begin{array}{ccc}x+5&y&z\\5&-2&0\\5&0&5\end{array}\right|=0.

Then

-10(x+5)+10z-25y=0,\\ \\2(x+5)-2z+5y=0,\\ \\2x+5y-2z=-10.

The coefficients at variables x, y and z are the coordinates of perpendicular vector to the plane. Thus

\vec{v}=(2,5,-2)\perp P.

Answer: \vec{v}=(2,5,-2).

A kite was broken into two triangles of the same size and shape. The area of each triangle is square centimeters. The total area
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer: Each triangle:40 cm²

Kite : 80cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a triangle is

1/2bh

The height of the triangle is

h=1/2(10)=5cm

and the base is 16 cm.

The area of each triangle is

= 1/2(16)(5)=40cm^2

2. The total area of the kite is 2 times the area of one triangle.

= 2*40=80cm^2

Amy needs to mail a gift card to a friend. She uses 47-cent stamps and 6-cent stamps to pay $2.42 in postage. How many of each s
AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

Answer:Amy used 4 41-cent stamps and 8 6-cent stamps.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of 41-cent stamps that Amy used. Let y represent the number of 6-cent stamps that Amy used.

41 cents = 41/100 = $0.41

6 cents = 6/100 = $0.06

She uses 41-cent stamps and 6-cent stamps to pay $2.12 in postage. It means that

0.41x + 0.06y = 2.12

Multiplying through by 100, it becomes

41x + 6y = 212

6y = 212 -41x

We would test for corresponding values of x and y that satisfies the equation and they must be whole numbers.

If x = 3,

6y = 212 - 41 × 3 = 89

y = 89/6 = 14.8333

If x = 4,

6y = 212 - 41 × 4 = 48

y = 48/6 = 8

Answer:Amy used 4 41-cent stamps and 8 6-cent stamps.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of 41-cent stamps that Amy used. Let y represent the number of 6-cent stamps that Amy used.

41 cents = 41/100 = $0.41

6 cents = 6/100 = $0.06

She uses 41-cent stamps and 6-cent stamps to pay $2.12 in postage. It means that

0.41x + 0.06y = 2.12

Multiplying through by 100, it becomes

41x + 6y = 212

6y = 212 -41x

We would test for corresponding values of x and y that satisfies the equation and they must be whole numbers.

If x = 3,

6y = 212 - 41 × 3 = 89

y = 89/6 = 14.8333

If x = 4,

6y = 212 - 41 × 4 = 48

y = 48/6 = 8
