Explanation The general form of a linear equation is given by, A x + B y + C = 0 . Here, A , B and C are constants and A , B are non-zero integers. Given: The given x - and y - intercepts are, x - intercept 3; y - intercept 4. Formula Used: The equation of a line through the points ( a , 0 ) and ( 0 , b ) is, x a + y b = 1 . Here, a and b are the x - and y - intercepts respectively. Calculation: Consider the equation of a line through the points ( a , 0 ) and ( 0

Family of Curves

A family of curves is a group of curves that are each described by a parametrization in which one or more variables are parameters. In general, the parameters have more complexity on the assembly of the curve than an ordinary linear transformation. These…

XZ Plane

In order to understand XZ plane, it's helpful to understand two-dimensional and three-dimensional spaces. To plot a point on a plane, two numbers are needed, and these two numbers in the plane can be represented as an ordered pair (a,b) where a and b are…

Euclidean Geometry

Geometry is the branch of mathematics that deals with flat surfaces like lines, angles, points, two-dimensional figures, etc. In Euclidean geometry, one studies the geometrical shapes that rely on different theorems and axioms. This (pure mathematics) ge…

Lines and Angles

In a two-dimensional plane, a line is simply a figure that joins two points. Usually, lines are used for presenting objects that are straight in shape and have minimal depth or width.

i) Consider the set S = {−6, −3, 0, 3, 6}. Draw a graph G whose set of verti- ces be S and such that for i, j ∈ S, ij ∈ E(G) if ij are related to a rule that t'u you choose to apply to i and j. (ii) A graph G of order 12 has as a set of vertices c1, c2, . . . , c12 for the do- ce configurations of figure 1. A movement on said board corresponds to moving a coin to an unoccupied square using the following two rules: 1. the gold coin can move only horizontally or diagonally, 2. the silver coin can move only vertically or diagonally. Two vertices ci, cj, i̸ = j are adjacent if it is possible to move ci to cj in a single movement. a) What vertices are adjacent to c1 in G? b) Draw the subgraph induced by {c2, c6, c9, c11}
