The points A and B have coordinates (2,4,1) and (3,2,-1) respectively. The point C is such that OC = 2OB, where O is the origin. Find the distance between A and C.

To find the distance between the points A and C, we want to find the magnitude of the vector AC. In order to do this, we must first find the vector AC, which we do by using their position vectors. We are ...

what is the equation of the normal line to the curve y=x^2-4x+3 at the point (5,8)?

first we need to work out the gradient of the tangent at (5,8). so first differentiate the equation once with respect to x. this gives is dy/dx=2x-4. so at (5,8) the gradient of the tangent is 6. this mea...

The first term of an arithmetic series is a and the common difference is d. The 12th term is 66.5 and the 19th term is 98. Write down two equations in a and d then solve these simultaneous equations to find a and d.

The first step is to recall the formula for arithmetic progressions: u(n) = a + (n-1)d We can then put all the information given in the question into this so u(12) = 66.5 = a + 11d and u(19) = 98 = a ...
