Vector a = (2, 1, 2)
Vector b = (1, 2, 4)
Vector p = (k, k, k)

Vector a to vector b = vector b - vector a = (1, 2, 4) - (2, 1, 2) = (1 - 2, 2 - 1, 4 - 2) = (-1, 1, 2)
Vector a to vector p = vector p - vector a = (k, k, k) - (2, 1, 2) = (k - 2, k - 1, k - 2)

Vector a to b is perpendicular to vector a to p if the dot product of vector a to vector b and vector a to vector p is equal to zero.
i.e. (-1, 1, 2) . (k - 2, k - 1, k - 2) = 0
-1(k - 2) + (k - 1) + 2(k - 2) = 0
-k + 2 + k - 1 + 2k - 4 = 0
2k -3 = 0
2k = 3
k = 3/2

a D.J. at a school dance plans to play dance music for 2 hours. she has 20 requests for songs. Each song plays for 3 1/2 minutes
viva [34]

So, put 2 hours into minutes. You get 120. Now, seeing how you have 20 song requests, and each one takes 3.5 minutes, multiply those two values. Now you have 70. After doing that, just subtract 70 from 120 and get 50.

tada

answer is 50
