Find the equation of the sphere passing through pleft parenthesis negative 4 comma 7 comma 6 right parenthesis(−4, 7, 6) and qleft parenthesis 6 comma negative 5 comma 7 right parenthesis(6, −5, 7) with its center at the midpoint of pq.

The equation of a sphere is:

(x – h)^2 + (y – k)^2 + (z – l)^2 = r^2

where h, k and l are the coordinates of the center of the sphere

Using the midpoint formula, the coordinate of the center is:

h = (-4 + 6) / 2 = 1

k = (7 + -5) / 2 = 1

l = (6 + 7) / 2 = 6.5

so the equation becomes:

(x – 1)^2 + (y – 1)^2 + (z - 6.5)^2 = r^2

we plug in any point, in this case point P to solve for r:

(-4 -1)^2 + (7 – 1)^2 + (6 - 6.5)^2 = r^2

r^2 = 61.25

So the full equation is:

(x – 1)^2 + (y – 1)^2 + (z - 6.5)^2 = 61.25

1/4 and 8/3 because:

the reciprocal if 4 is 1/4 because 4 is used as 4/1 and the opposite of that is 1/4. the opposite of 3/8 is 8/3 so that is the answer.

region b will make the inequalities y < 2x + 1 and y > -x - 2 true ⇒ answer a

step-by-step explanation:

* lets study the graph and the inequality to solve the question

- the inequality y > -x - 2

∵ the form of the inequality is y > mx + c , m is the slope of the line

  and c is the y-intercept (the line intersect y-axis at point (0 , c)

∴ c = -2 that means the line intersect the y-axis at point (0 , -2)

∵ the sign of the inequality is >

∴ we shad the part over the line

  region a and b

- the inequality y < 2x + 1

∵ the form of the inequality is y > mx + c , m is the slope of the line

  and c is the y-intercept (the line intersect y-axis at point (0 , c)

∴ c = 1 that means the line intersect the y-axis at point (0 , 1)

∵ the sign of the inequality is <

∴ we shad the part under the line

  region b and c

∵ the common region between the two lines is region b

∴ region b will make the inequalities y < 2x + 1 and y > -x - 2 true
