Answer:

<h3>The answer is 2</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

The gradient of a line given two points can be found by using the formula

m =  \frac{ y_2 - y _ 1}{x_ 2 - x_ 1}  \\

From the question we have

m  =  \frac{ - 6 -  - 2}{0 - 2}  =  \frac{ - 6 + 2}{ - 2}   =   \frac{ - 4}{ - 2}  = 2 \\

We have the final answer as

<h3>2</h3>

Hope this helps you

(a) Find a vector parallel to the line of intersection of the planes −4x+2y−z=1 and 3x−2y+2z=1.
valentinak56 [21]

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>⟩

A cylinder has a radius of 8 meters and a height of 4 meters. .
Novay_Z [31]
<h2><u>Solution</u> :-</h2>

Given : Radius of cylinder = 8 m

Height = 4 m

Volume of cylinder = πr²h cu. units

= 22/7 × 8 × 8 × 4 m³

= 804.57 m³ (approx.)

Curved surface area = 2πrh sq. units

= 2 × 22/7 × 8 × 4 m²

= 201.14 m² (approx.)

Total surface area = 2πr(r + h) sq. units

= 2 × 22/7 × 8 (8 + 4) m²

= 2 × 22/7 × 8 × 12 m²

= 603.43 (approx.)

Answer:

  40.5°

Step-by-step explanation:

The relevant trig relation is ...

  Tan = Opposite/Adjacent

In this triangle, that means ...

  tan(x°) = 4.7/5.5

The angle is found using the inverse function:

  x° = arctan(4.7/5.5) ≈ 40.5°
