The points A(1, 2, 7), B(2, 6, 3) and C(3, 10, -1) are

Answer»

collinear
coplanar
non-collinear
None of these

Solution :The given points are A(1, 2, 7), B(2, 6, 3) and C(3, 10, -1).
Now, `AB=PV" of "B - PV " of "A`
`vec(AB)=(2hati+6hatj+3hatk)-(1hati+2hatj+7hatk)`
`=hati+4hatj-4hatk`
`implies |AB|=sqrt((1)^(2)+(4)^(2)+(-4)^(2))`
`=sqrt(1+16+16)=sqrt(33)`
`BC=PV" of "C-PV" of "B`
`=(3hati+10hatj-1hatk)-(2hati+6hatj+3hatk)`
`=hati+4hatj-4hatk`
`implies |BC|=sqrt((1)^(2)+(4)^(2)+(-4)^(2))`
`=sqrt(1+16+16)=sqrt(33)`
`AC=PV" of "C-PV" of "A`
`vec(AC)=(3hati+10hatj-1hatk)-(1hati+2hatj+7hatk)`
`=2hati+8hatj-8hatk`
`implies |AC|=sqrt(2^(2)+8^(2)+(-8)^(2))=sqrt(4+64+64)`
`=sqrt(132)=2sqrt(33)=sqrt(33)+sqrt(33)`
`THEREFORE |AC|=|AB|+|BC|`
Hence, the given points A, B and C are collinear.

For what value of lamda the system of equations x+y+z=6, 4x+lamda y-lamda z=0, 3x+2y-4z=-5 deos not possess a solution?

Answer»

Solution :Let `Delta=[[1,1,1],[4,LAMDA,-lamda],[3,2,-4]]`
`[[0,0,1],[4-lamda,2lamda,-lamda],[1,6,-4]]` (`C_1=C_2-C_1`
`C_2=C_2-C_3`)
=`1[[4-lamda,2lamda],[1,6]]`
=`24-6lamda-2lamda=24-8lamda`
We have `24-8lamda=0` or, `lamda=3`
`therefore` The system of EQUATION does not POSSES solution for `lamda=3`.

Which term in the expansion of (2-3x)^(19) has algebrically the last coefficients ?

Answer»

`10^(th)`
`11^(th)`
`12^(th)`
`13^(th)`

Solution :For algebraically the LEAST coefficient we first FIND the numerically the greatest term for `x = 1`.
Using `r le (n+1)/(1+|(a)/(bx)|)`, we get
`RLE(19+1)/(1+|2/3|)rArr r le 12`
Therefore, `T_(13)` and `T_(12)` have numerically the greatest conefficient.
`T_(12)` is ALGEBRICALLY the least as it is followedby negative sign.
