Grade 12 calculus and vectors question:

The line

(x,y,z)=(11,-8,4)+t(3,-1,1)

runs in the direction of its tangent vector; we can get it by taking its derivative:

\vec T=\dfrac{\mathrm d}{\mathrm dt}\left[(11,-8,4)+t(3,-1,1)\right]=(3,-1,1)

Any line that runs perpendicular to this line will have a tangent vector that is orthogonal to \vec T above. So construct some vector \vec v that satisfies this.

\vec v=(x,y,z)

\vec v\cdot\vec T=(x,y,z)\cdot(3,-1,1)=3x-y+z=0

Suppose z=0; then 3x=y, and we can pick any two values that satisfy this condition. For instance,

\vec v=(1,3,0)

And of course,

(1, 3, 0) • (3, -1, 1) = 3 - 3 + 0 = 0

so \vec v and \vec T are indeed orthogonal.

Now, the line running in the direction of \vec v and passing through the origin can be obtained by scaling

(x,y,z)=(4,5,5)+t(1,3,0)

More generally, if you have a direction/tangent vector \vec v and some point \vec p, the line through \vec p is given by

(x,y,z)=\vec p+t\vec v

How do I do this? I’ve tried it out but I’m not sure if it’s correct. It’s about the Elimination Method.

Most times, it’s good to talk to your teacher for help. I think it would be a good idea to ask your parent, sibling or any adult for help. Sometimes you think harder than you should so relax and try reading the question again. I hope you figure this out! Good luck!

A skateboard travels 55 feet in 4 seconds. Is the skateboard going faster, slower, or the same speed as the scooter?
Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

Slower.

Step-by-step explanation:

I belive it is slower because the scooter was 30 feet per 2 seconds. 30+30+60 feet, 2+2= 4 seconds= 60 feet and 4 seconds which makes the 55 feet per 4 seconds slower.
