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>⟩

In her first 20 games, Jennie served 4 aces. If she continues to serve aces at this rate, how many aces will she have after 160
Talja [164]

Answer:

32 aces

Step-by-step explanation:

4/20= x/160

once you set up this proportion you can cross multiple to get:

20x= 640

then just solve for x:

x= 32

What is the circumference and area of a circle with a radius of 8 centimeters
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

Area= 64pi or 201.06

Circumference: 16pi or 50.265

Step-by-step explanation:

Area= \pi r^{2}

pi (8)^2 = 64pi or 201.06

Circumference= 2pir , 2(pi)8 = 16pi or 50.2

A rectangular plot of farmland will be bounded on one side by a river and on the other three sides by a​ single-strand electric
larisa86 [58]

Answer:

525 x 1,050

A = 551,250 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 'L' be the length parallel to the river and 'S' be the length of each of the other two sides.

The length of  the three sides is given by:

2S+L=2,100\\ L=2100-2S

The area of the rectangular plot is given by:

A=S*L\\A=S(2100-2S)\\A=2100 S -2S^2

The value of 'S' for which the area's derivate is zero, yields the maximum total area:

\frac{dA(S)}{dS}=\frac{d(2100 S -2S^2)}{dS}\\0= 2100 - 4S\\S=525

Solving for 'L':

L=2100-(2*525)\\L=1,050

The largest area enclosed is given by dimension of 525 m x 1,050 and is:

A = 525*1,025\\A=551,250\ m^2

a architect uses a scale drawing with a scale factor of 1 cm:20 feet. if a actually building is 120 feet tall how many centimete
agasfer [191]
The answer is 6

Explanation:
1 cm : 20 feet
y cm : 120 feet
(We will use cross multiplication)
20y = 120*1
20y/ 20 = 120/20. (left-side: the 20’s will be cancelled)
y= 120/20
y= 6
