Which of these points is the closest to the point (7, 1) ?

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution

The general equation of the plane passing through (2,5,−3) is

a(x−2)+b(y−5)+c(z+3)=0 (1)

Now, this plane passes through B(−2,−3,5) and C(5,3,−3).Then we have

a(−2−2)+b(−3−5)+c(5+3)=0

⇒−4a−8b+8c=0

⇒−a−2b+2c=0 (2)

a(5−2)+b(3−5)+c(−3+3)=0

⇒3a−2b=0 (3)

Solving (2) and (3) we get

0+4

c

=λ(say)

⇒a=4λ,b=6λ,c=8λ

Substituting the values of a,b and c in (1), we get

4λ(x−2)+6λ(y−5)+8λ(z+3)=0

⇒4(x−2)+6(y−5)+8(z+3)=0

⇒4x+6y+8z−14=0

⇒2x+3y+4z−7=0

This is the equation of the plane determined by the points A(2,5,−3),B(−2,−3,5) and C(5,3,−3)

Now, the distance of this plane from the point (7,2,4) is

5x + 5

step-by-step explanation:

you should always add the diagrams and graphs we cannot see. this particular question is kind of borderline because we can make a graph for you.

(f + g)x = -x^2 +3x + 5 + x^2 + 2x

(f + g)x = 5x + 5

the graph of z = 5x + 5 is shown below. always use desmos when in doubt.
