    Linear function and is it linear?

    I had to find an equation of a linear function z=c+mx+ny whose graph intersects the xy plane in the line y=2x+2 and contains the point (1,2,2) I got the answer as z=2x-y+2 Now I have to see if the function f which satisfies f(0,0)=0, f(2,0)=3 and f(5,0)=6 linear? and explain it. I have...

    Where Does the Line Intersect the Plane in 3D Space?

    Let L be the line through the point Po(1,2,8) which is parallel to the vector R(3i-j-4k). Find the point at which l intersects the plane through the point p1(-4,0,3) having normal vector n(3i-2j+6k) I did the following: x=1+3t y=2-t z=8-4t 3(x+4)+6(z-3)=0 3x+6z-6=0 3(1+3t)+6(8-4t)-6=0...

    Line and Plane: Perpendicular or Parallel? Explanation and Examples

    Can someone explain to me how to do this: Determine whether the line and plane are perpendicular or parallel or neither x = -1+2t y = 4+t z = 1-t 4x+2y-2z-7=0 My attempt: 2/4 = 1/2 = -1/-2 Since the ratios are the same, does it mean it is parallel? Also when is it perpendicular?
