Answer:
a) Everyone on the team talks until the entire team agrees on one decision.
Step-by-step explanation:
Option B consists of voting and not everyone would like the outcome. Option C is making an outsider the decision maker, which can't be helpful since he / she won't have as strong opinions as the team itself. Option D is just plain wrong as it defeats the purpose of team work and deciding as one team. So, I believe option A makes the most sense
Find an equation of the plane that contains the points p(5,−1,1),q(9,1,5),and r(8,−6,0)p(5,−1,1),q(9,1,5),and r(8,−6,0).

Given plane passes through:
p(5,-1,1), q(9,1,5), r(8,-6,0)
We need to find a plane that is parallel to the plane through all three points, we form the vectors of any two sides of the triangle pqr:
pq=p-q=<5-9,-1-1,1-5>=<-4,-2,-4>
pr=p-r=<5-8,-1-6,1-0>=<-3,5,1>
The vector product pq x pr gives a vector perpendicular to both pq and pr. This vector is the normal vector of a plane passing through all three points
pq x pr
=
i j k
-4 -2 -4
-3 5 1
=<-2+20,12+4,-20-6>
=<18,16,-26>
Since the length of the normal vector does not change the direction, we simplify the normal vector as
N = <9,8,-13>
The required plane must pass through all three points.
We know that the normal vector is perpendicular to the plane through the three points, so we just need to make sure the plane passes through one of the three points, say q(9,1,5).
The equation of the required plane is therefore
Π : 9(x-9)+8(y-1)-13(z-5)=0
expand and simplify, we get the equation
Π : 9x+8y-13z=24
Check to see that the plane passes through all three points:
at p: 9(5)+8(-1)-13(1)=45-8-13=24
at q: 9(9)+8(1)-13(5)=81+9-65=24
at r: 9(8)+8(-6)-13(0)=72-48-0=24
So plane passes through all three points, as required.
To answer this problem, let p be the price of each scrub. The total bill (t) is the sum of the price of the potting soil (s) and of the 9 scrubs (n). This is depicted in the equation,
$11.50 + 9p = $94.75
The value of p from the equation is 9.25. Thus, each scrub costs $9.25. The answer is letter C.
<span>Man, I wish I could see this answer.
Just copy you that the best answer.</span>
Using Heron's formula where s = 9 ...... and a = b = c = the side lengths .....we have......
A = √[s(s -a)^3] = √[4*3^3] = √[4*27] = √[4*9*3] = √[36*3) = 9√3 sq. in.
