Answer:

-4

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 10 - 2x,

Let x= 7

f(7) = 10 2(7)

= 10-14

= -4

At what point on the paraboloid y = x2 + z2 is the tangent plane parallel to the plane 3x + 2y + 7z = 2? (if an answer does not

Nikitich [7]

If $f(x, y, z) = c$ represent a family of surfaces for different values of the constant $c$ . The gradient of the function $f$ defined as $\nabla f$ is a vector normal to the surface $f(x, y, z) = c$ .

Given the paraboloid

$y = x^2 + z^2$ .

We can rewrite it as a scalar value function f as follows:

$f(x,y,z)=x^2-y+z^2=0$

The normal to the paraboloid at any point is given by:

$\nabla f= i\frac{\partial}{\partial x}(x^2-y+z^2) - j\frac{\partial}{\partial y}(x^2-y+z^2) + k\frac{\partial}{\partial z}(x^2-y+z^2) \\ \\ =2xi-j+2zk$

Also, the normal to the given plane $3x + 2y + 7z = 2$ is given by:

$3i+2j+7k$

Equating the two normal vectors, we have:

$2x=3\Rightarrow x= \frac{3}{2} \\ \\ -1=2 \\ \\ 2z=7\Rightarrow z= \frac{7}{2}$

Since, -1 = 2 is not possible, therefore there exist no such point on the paraboloid $y = x^2 + z^2$ such that the tangent plane is parallel to the plane 3x + 2y + 7z = 2.

Answer:

C. 7790.83 cm^3

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a sphere is given by

V = 4/3 pi r^3

We know the radius is 12.3

Using 3.14 for pi (This will give us an approximation, not an exact value)

V = 4/3(3.14) (12.3)^3

=7790.82984 cm^3

How to put 634 in scientific form

svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

6.34 × 10²

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculating scientific notation for a positive integer is simple, as it always follows this notation: a x 10b.

Step 1

To find a, take the number and move a decimal place to the right one position.

Original Number: 634

New Number: 6.34

Step 2

Now, to find b, count how many places to the right of the decimal.

New Number: 6 . 3 4

Decimal Count: 1 2

There are 2 places to the right of the decimal place.

Step 3

Building upon what we know above, we can now reconstruct the number into scientific notation.

Remember, the notation is: a x 10b

a = 6.34

b = 2

Now the whole thing:

6.34 x 10²

Step 4

Check your work:

10² = 100 x 6.34 = 634
