a)

Answer to Problem 68PPE
Fraction of house, Tim can paint in one day is
Fraction of house, Tara can paint in one day is
Explanation of Solution
Given:
Tim can paint a house in 6 days. Tara can paint the same house in 3 days.
To find the fraction, Tim can paint in one day,
So, the fraction, Tim can paint in one day is
To find the fraction, Tara can paint in one day,
So, the fraction, Tara can paint in one day is
b)
To evaluate: the fraction of the house can Tim paint in‘d’ days and the fraction of the house can Tara paint in‘d’ days.
b)

Answer to Problem 68PPE
Fraction of house, Tim can paint in ‘d’ days is
Fraction of house, Tara can paint in ‘d’ days is
Explanation of Solution
Given:
Tim can paint a house in 6 days. Tara can paint the same house in 3 days.
To find the fraction, Tim can paint in one day,
So, the fraction, Tim can paint in ‘d’ days is
To find the fraction, Tara can paint in one day,
So, the fraction, Tara can paint in ‘d’ day is
c)
To evaluate: the fraction of the house can Tim and Tara together can paint in 1 day and the fraction of the house can Tim and Tara together can paint in ‘d’ day.
c)

Answer to Problem 68PPE
Fraction of house, Tim can paint in ‘d’ days is
Fraction of house, Tara can paint in ‘d’ days is
Explanation of Solution
Given:
Tim can paint a house in 6 days. Tara can paint the same house in 3 days.
To find the fraction, Tim can paint in one day,
To find the fraction, Tara can paint in one day,
So, the fraction, Tim and Tara can paint in a day is
The fraction, Tim can paint in ‘d’ days is
The fraction, Tara can paint in ‘d’ days is
So, the fraction, Tim and Tara can paint in ‘d’ days is
d)
To evaluate: the solution of the equation to find the number of days it will take Tim and Tara to paint the whole house working together.
d)

Answer to Problem 68PPE
The total number of days, Tim and Tara can paint the whole house is 2 days.
Explanation of Solution
Given:
Tim can paint a house in 6 days. Tara can paint the same house in 3 days.
To find the fraction, Tim can paint in one day,
To find the fraction, Tara can paint in one day,
So, the fraction, Tim and Tara can paint in a day is
The total number of days, Tim and Tara can paint the whole house is 2 days.

- You are given a plane Π in R3 defined by two vectors, p1 and p2, and a subspace W in R3 spanned by twovectors, w1 and w2. Your task is to project the plane Π onto the subspace W.First, answer the question of what the projection matrix is that projects onto the subspace W and how toapply it to find the desired projection. Second, approach the task in a different way by using the Gram-Schmidtmethod to find an orthonormal basis for subspace W, before then using the resulting basis vectors for theprojection. Last, compare the results obtained from both methodsarrow_forwardPlane II is spanned by the vectors: - (2) · P² - (4) P1=2 P21 3 Subspace W is spanned by the vectors: 2 W1 - (9) · 1 W2 1 = (³)arrow_forwardshow that v3 = (−√3, −3, 3)⊤ is an eigenvector of M3 .
