Find the intersection of the two planes. Do this by solving for <em>z</em> in terms of <em>x</em> and <em>y </em>; then solve for <em>y</em> in terms of <em>x</em> ; then again for <em>z</em> but only in terms of <em>x</em>.

-4<em>x</em> + 2<em>y</em> - <em>z</em> = 1   ==>   <em>z</em> = -4<em>x</em> + 2<em>y</em> - 1

3<em>x</em> - 2<em>y</em> + 2<em>z</em> = 1   ==>   <em>z</em> = (1 - 3<em>x</em> + 2<em>y</em>)/2

==>   -4<em>x</em> + 2<em>y</em> - 1 = (1 - 3<em>x</em> + 2<em>y</em>)/2

==>   -8<em>x</em> + 4<em>y</em> - 2 = 1 - 3<em>x</em> + 2<em>y</em>

==>   -5<em>x</em> + 2<em>y</em> = 3

==>   <em>y</em> = (3 + 5<em>x</em>)/2

==>   <em>z</em> = -4<em>x</em> + 2 (3 + 5<em>x</em>)/2 - 1 = <em>x</em> + 2

So if we take <em>x</em> = <em>t</em>, the line of intersection is parameterized by

<em>r</em><em>(t)</em> = ⟨<em>t</em>, (3 + 5<em>t</em> )/2, 2 + <em>t</em>⟩

Just to not have to work with fractions, scale this by a factor of 2, so that

<em>r</em><em>(t)</em> = ⟨2<em>t</em>, 3 + 5<em>t</em>, 4 + 2<em>t</em>⟩

(a) The tangent vector to <em>r</em><em>(t)</em> is parallel to this line, so you can use

<em>v</em> = d<em>r</em>/d<em>t</em> = d/d<em>t</em> ⟨2<em>t</em>, 3 + 5<em>t</em>, 4 + 2<em>t</em>⟩ = ⟨2, 5, 2⟩

or any scalar multiple of this.

(b) (-1, -1, 1) indeed lies in both planes. Plug in <em>x</em> = -1, <em>y</em> = 1, and <em>z</em> = 1 to both plane equations to see this for yourself. We already found the parameterization for the intersection,

<em>r</em><em>(t)</em> = ⟨2<em>t</em>, 3 + 5<em>t</em>, 4 + 2<em>t</em>⟩

Consider the quadratic equation 3x^2-6=2x. (a) What is the value of the discriminant? (b) What does the discriminant of the quad
aleksley [76]

Answer:

(a) discriminant is positive, 76

(b) the above tells you there are two real roots

Step-by-step explanation:

the discriminant is 'b² - 4ac'

3x² - 2x - 6 = 0  ∴ a = 3, b = -2, c = -6

(-2)² - 4(3)(-6) = 4 + 72

the first ferris wheel was built in 1893 in chicago. It’s diameter was 250 feet. How many feet did the ferris wheel rotate with
Mice21 [21]

Answer:

about 785.4

Step-by-step explanation:

The circumference of a circle is pi times the diameter:

C = πd

C = π·(250 ft) ≈ 785.4 ft

_____

Most scientific or graphing calculators have the value of π built in. If yours doesn't, a value good for at least 6 significant figures is the ratio 355/113.

A right triangle has leg lengths of 7 inches and 24 inches.
SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer:

The length of the hypotenuse = 25 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

A right triangle has leg lengths of 7 inches and 24 inches.

Given

  • a = 7
  • b = 24

<u><em>Pythagorean Theorem</em></u>

For a right-angled triangle with sides 'a' and 'b', the hypotenuse 'c' is

defined as:

c=\sqrt{a^2+b^2}

  • a=7 inches
  • b=24 icnhes

so substituting the values

c=\sqrt{7^2+24^2}

c=25 inches

Thus, the length of the hypotenuse = 25 inches
