Find the equation of the sphere if one of its diameters has endpoints (4, 2, -9) and (6, 6, -3) which has been normalized so tha

Pavel [41]

Answer:

$(x - 5)^2 + (y - 4)^2 + (z - 6)^2 = 14$ .

(Expand to obtain an equivalent expression for the sphere: $x^2 - 10\,x + y^2 - 8\, y + z^2 - 12\, z + 63 = 0$ )

Step-by-step explanation:

Apply the Pythagorean Theorem to find the distance between these two endpoints:

$\begin{aligned}&\text{Distance}\cr &= \sqrt{\left(x_2 - x_1\right)^2 + \left(y_2 - y_1\right)^2 + \left(z_2 - z_1\right)^2} \cr &= \sqrt{(6 - 4)^2 + (6 - 2)^2 + ((-3) - (-9))^2 \cr &= \sqrt{56}}\end{aligned}$ .

Since the two endpoints form a diameter of the sphere, the distance between them would be equal to the diameter of the sphere. The radius of a sphere is one-half of its diameter. In this case, that would be equal to:

$\begin{aligned} r &= \frac{1}{2} \, \sqrt{56} \cr &= \sqrt{\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^2 \times 56} \cr &= \sqrt{\frac{1}{4} \times 56} \cr &= \sqrt{14} \end{aligned}$ .

In a sphere, the midpoint of every diameter would be the center of the sphere. Each component of the midpoint of a segment (such as the diameter in this question) is equal to the arithmetic mean of that component of the two endpoints. In other words, the midpoint of a segment between $\left(x_1, \, y_1, \, z_1\right)$ and $\left(x_2, \, y_2, \, z_2\right)$ would be:

$\displaystyle \left(\frac{x_1 + x_2}{2},\, \frac{y_1 + y_2}{2}, \, \frac{z_1 + z_2}{2}\right)$ .

In this case, the midpoint of the diameter, which is the same as the center of the sphere, would be at:

$\begin{aligned}&\left(\frac{x_1 + x_2}{2},\, \frac{y_1 + y_2}{2}, \, \frac{z_1 + z_2}{2}\right) \cr &= \left(\frac{4 + 6}{2},\, \frac{2 + 6}{2}, \, \frac{(-9) + (-3)}{2}\right) \cr &= (5,\, 4\, -6)\end{aligned}$ .

The equation for a sphere of radius $r$ and center $\left(x_0,\, y_0,\, z_0\right)$ would be:

$\left(x - x_0\right)^2 + \left(y - y_0\right)^2 + \left(z - z_0\right)^2 = r^2$ .

In this case, the equation would be:

$\left(x - 5\right)^2 + \left(y - 4\right)^2 + \left(z - (-6)\right)^2 = \left(\sqrt{56}\right)^2$ .

Simplify to obtain:

$\left(x - 5\right)^2 + \left(y - 4\right)^2 + \left(z + 6\right)^2 = 56$ .

Expand the squares and simplify to obtain:

$x^2 - 10\,x + y^2 - 8\, y + z^2 - 12\, z + 63 = 0$ .

malfutka [58]

Answer: he was 84 years old when he died and the fractional part of a century that he live is 21/25

Step-by-step explanation:

General Douglas MacArthur, one of the leading generals in World War II was born in 1880. He died in 1964. The number of years that he lived would be the year he died - the yea he was born. Therefore,

His age when he died

= 1964 - 1880 = 84 years.

The number of years in a century is 100. Therefore, the fractional part of a century that he lived would be

84/100 = 21/25

Two balls A and B rotate along a circular track. Ball A makes 4 full rotations in 120 seconds. Ball B makes 3 full rotation in 6

lara [203]

Find the rate in which both balls make one full rotation around the track.

Ball A:

$120 / 4 = 30$

It takes 30 seconds for Ball A to make a full rotation.

Ball B:

$60 / 3 = 20$

It takes 20 seconds for Ball B to make a full rotation.

Find the least common multiple of 20 and 30 to find the time at which they'll meet.

Multiples of 20: {20,40,60}
Multiples of 30: {30,60}

60 is the least common multiple of both 20 and 30.

The balls will meet again at 60 seconds.

garri49 [273]

Answer:

Option A) One tailed test is a hypothesis test in which rejection region is in one tail of the sampling distribution

Step-by-step explanation:

One Tailed Test:

A one tailed test is a test that have hypothesis of the form

$H_0: \bar{x} = \mu\\H_A: \bar{x} < \mu\text{ or } \bar{x} > \mu$

A one-tailed test is a hypothesis test that help us to test whether the sample mean would be higher or lower than the population mean.
Rejection region is the area for which the null hypothesis is rejected.
If we perform right tailed hypothesis that is the upper tail hypothesis then the rejection region lies in the right tail after the critical value.

If we perform left tailed hypothesis that is the lower tail hypothesis then the rejection region lies in the left tail after the critical value.

Thus, for one tailed test,

Option A) One tailed test is a hypothesis test in which rejection region is in one tail of the sampling distribution
