    Volume between plane x+y+z=1 and xy-plane

    Try drawing a picture of the volume that you're trying to find. When I took multi-V, I noticed that helped me visualize the question better, which is essential to setting up your integral equation.

    Volume between plane x+y+z=1 and xy-plane

    Weird. I tried evaluating your integrals, and I got (1/6)-(-3)=(19/6). See what you get by evaluating the second integral again. I don't know if I made a mistake or not.

    Heat Equation - Trouble Finding a General Solution

    Thank you so much for your help. I reached the final solution. I'll upload the results to show you as soon as I can. I have a final question as to what happened with a negative sign when I did a substitution, if you don't mind.

    Vector Problem - is this even solvable?

    It was correct - my online homework thing accepted it, lol. The algebra was just a little ambiguous.

    Vector Problem - is this even solvable?

    Even if I solve it, I still think there's something going wrong... I'll use a computer. I just tried doing it with matrices, lol.

    Vector Problem - is this even solvable?

    I think I'm on the right track... thanks guys. Can you confirm if this is heading in the correct direction? a<81,-73>+b<-79,49>+<60,85>=<0,0> So, 81a-79b+60=0 -73a+49b+85=0 ?
