Let L be the line with parametric equations x=5+t,y=6,z=−2−3t. Find the vector equation for a line that passes through the point

P=(−5,7,−8) and intersects L at a point that is distance 3 from the point Q=(5,6,−2). Note that there are two possible correct answers. Use the square root symbol √ where needed to give an exact value for your answer.

Answer:

The required equations are

(-5 \hat i + 7 \hat j + 8 \hat k )+\lambda \left((10+\frac {3}{\sqrt {10}})\hat i -\hat j +(6- \frac {9}{\sqrt {10}})\hat k\right)=0 and

(-5 \hat i + 7 \hat j + 8 \hat k )+\lambda \left((10-\frac {3}{\sqrt {10}})\hat i -\hat j +(6+ \frac {9}{\sqrt {10}})\hat k\right)=0.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parametric equation of the line, L, is x=5+t, y=6, z=-2-3t, so, an arbitrary point on the line is R(x,y,z)=R(5+t, 6, -2-3t)

The vector equation of the line passing through the points P(-5,7,-8) and R(5+t, 6, -2-3t) is

\vec P + \lambda \vec{(PR)}=0

\Rightarrow (-5 \hat i + 7 \hat j - 8 \hat k )+\lambda \left((5+t-(-5))\hat i + (6-7)\hat j +(-2-3t-8)\hat k\right)=0

\Rightarrow (-5 \hat i + 7 \hat j - 8 \hat k )+\lambda \left((10+t)\hat i -\hat j +(6-3t)\hat k\right)=0\;\cdots (i)

The given equation can also be written as

\frac {x-5}{1}=\frac {v-6}{0}=\frac{z+2}{-3}=t \; \cdots (ii)

The standard  equation of the line passes through the point P_0(x_0,y_0,z_0) and having direction\vec v= a_1 \hat i +a_2 \hat j +a_3 \hat k is

\frac {x-x_0}{a_1}=\frac {y-y_0}{a_2}=\frac{z-z_0}{a_3}=t \;\cdots (iii)

Here, The value of the parameter,t, of any point R at a distance d from the point, P_0, can be determined by

|t \vec v|=d\;\cdots (iv)

Comparing equations (ii) and (iii)

The line is passing through the point P_0 (5,6,-2) having direction \vec v=\hat i -3 \hat k.

Note that the point Q(5,6,-2) is the same as P_0 obtained above.

Now, the value of the parameter, t, for point R at distance d=3 from the point Q(5,6,-2) can be determined by equation (iv), we have

|t(\hat i -3 \hat k)|=3

\Rightarrow t^2|(\hat i -3 \hat k)|^2=9

\Rightarrow 10t^2=9

\Rightarrow t^2=\frac {9}{10}

\Rightarrow t=\pm \frac {3}{\sqrt {10}}

Put the value of t in equation (i), the required equations are as follows:

For t= \frac {3}{\sqrt {10}}

(-5 \hat i + 7 \hat j - 8 \hat k )+\lambda \left((10+\frac {3}{\sqrt {10}})\hat i -\hat j +\left(6-3\times \frac {3}{\sqrt {10}})\hat k\right)=0

\Rightarrow (-5 \hat i + 7 \hat j - 8 \hat k )+\lambda \left((10+\frac {3}{\sqrt {10}})\hat i -\hat j +(6- \frac {9}{\sqrt {10}})\hat k\right)=0

and for t= -\frac {3}{\sqrt {10}},

(-5 \hat i + 7 \hat j - 8 \hat k )+\lambda \left((10+\left (-\frac {3}{\sqrt {10}}\right))\hat i -\hat j +(6-3\times \left(-\frac {3}{\sqrt {10}}\right)\hat k\right)=0

\Rightarrow  (-5 \hat i + 7 \hat j - 8 \hat k )+\lambda \left((10-\frac {3}{\sqrt {10}})\hat i -\hat j +(6+ \frac {9}{\sqrt {10}})\hat k\right)=0

Corey brought $54.50 to the art supply store. He bought a brush, a sketchbook, and a paint set. The brush was 1 6 as much as the
lord [1]

Answer: The items cost as follows;

(a) Brush = $3.50, (b) Sketchbook = $21 and (c) Paint set = $28

Step-by-step explanation: First of all we shall assign letters to the unknown variables, hence we shall call the brush x, the sketchbook y, and the paint set we shall call z.

The total amount spent by Corey was $52.50 because after buying all he needed, he had $2.00 left out of a total of $54.50. This means his transaction can be expressed as follows;

x + y + z = 52.50

However, we know that the brush was 1/6 as much as the sketchbook, that is, if the sketchbook is y, then the brush which is x shall be 1/6 of y. Simply put, x = 1/6y or x = y/6.

Similarly, the sketchbook cost 3/4 of the paint set. If the paint set is z, that means y = 3/4z or y = 3z/4.

Note however that, if y = 3z/4, then by cross multiplication,

4y = 3z

4y/3 = z

Having derived that x = y/6 and z = 4y/3, we can substitute for the values of x and z into the original equation

x + y + z = 52.50

y/6 + y + 4y/3 = 52.5

using a common denominator which is 6, you now have;

(y + 6y + 8y)/6 = 52.5

By cross multiplication, you now have

15y = 52.5*6

15y = 315

Divide both sides of the equation by 15

y = 21

Therefore, if the sketchbook is y, then the sketchbook costs $21.

Also if the brush is x, then the brush costs

x = y/6

x = 21/6

x = 3.50 (The brush costs $3.50)

Also if the sketchbook costs 3/4 of the paint set, then

y = 3z/4

21 = 3z/4

21*4 = 3z

84 = 3z

Divide both sides of the equation by 3

28 = z (The paint set costs $28)

Answer for both pleaseeeeeeeeeee
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

0 and yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a=6m where m is any integer since a is divisible by 6. (a+12)/3=(6m+12)/3=2m+4 which is also an integer. The remainder is 0.

Since n is divisible by 3, n can be written as 3a, where a is any integer and m can be written as 2b, where b is any integer. n*m+12=6ab+12 which is divisible by 2.
