a) Point A(6,7,2) lies on l1. Point B(9,16,5) also lies on l1. Find the distance between these two points. b) l2 lies in the same z plane as l1 and crosses l1 at A and is perpendicular to l1. Express l2 in vector form.

a) Distance between two points ((x2- x1)^2 + (y2-y1)^2)^1/2Substitute in values to find distance.b) Write out l1 in vector form using info from points A and B.Use knowledge of scalar product to construct l2's direction vector.Construct l2.

Why is the definite integral between negative limits of a function with positive values negative even though the area bound by the x-axis is positive? for example the integral of y=x^2 between x=-2 and x=-1


What is integration?


A curve is described by f(x) = x^2 + 2x. A second curve is described by g(x) = x^2 -5x + 7. Find the point (s) where both curves intersect.


Differentiate the function f(x) = 3x^2/sin(2x)
