Ok nevermind that. If you want a plane that is perpendicular to both, then the line of intersection of the two planes must act as a perpedicular to the third plane correct?
basically want to find the equation of that line and then we can proceed from there. We have point A on the line with y coordinate of 2 so lets find its x and y components
x+2+3z=8....x+3z=6
2x-2(2)+z=3....2x+z=7
rearrage the first equation to make x the subject
x=6-3z
substitute x into the second equation
2(6-3z)+z=7
12-5z=7
z=1
x=3
so A: (3,2,1)
Thats one part down. Now we need to find ANY other point on that line so we can figure out its direction. Let us take y=3
x+3+3z=8....x+3z=5
2x-2(3)+z=3....2x+z=9
rearrage the first equation to make x the subject
x=5-3z
substitute x into the second equataion
2(5-3z)+z=9
10-5z=9
z=0.2
x=4.4
so the other point is (4.4,3,0.2)
Let us find the direction of the line then:
[4.4i+3j+0.2k]-[3i+2j+k]=[1.4i+j-0.8k] This is the normal to the plane in question

setting up the cartesian equation of the plane: 1.4x+y-0.8z=[1.4i+j-0.8k].[3i,2j,k]

1.4x+y-0.8z=5.4
1.75x+1.25y-z=6.75
7x+5y-4z=27

Thanks boyz

Let me give it a try,
y=e^(-ax)tanx
dy/dx=(-a)(e^-ax)(tanx)+(e^-ax)(secx^2)=0
a(e^-ax)(tanx)=(e^-ax)(secx^2)
atanx=1+tanx^2 -- secx^2=1+tanx^2
tanx^2-atanx+1=0
solve it simultaneously.

Q5 part ii) 180 ==> 179.5
When exactly do we use continuity corrections?? Can someone quote some other questions?
You use these approximation when you are converting binomial to normal distribution.
you have to think yourself like if in binomial there is >180, then in normal it should be =>181.5
if in binomial there is <180 then in normal there is =<179.5
if in binomial there is =<180 then in normal there is =<181.5
Mean you have to make sure that the range in normal shouls contain the binomial range.
On the last page of Znotes there is approximation
Search Znotes in google :D

Q4 ms says P(score is 6) = P(3, 3)
= r^2 = 1/36
why r^2 !!

Q5 How did we get the value of Z? (other than the use of a calculator)

Q When using the probability table ..how do we use the section on the right-hand side which had ADD written on top of it. Is that number added at the last d.p value?
That very early, just wait for the answer till tomorrow.
Kiun ky kal paper hi or ab tumheen ye bateen yad aa rahi hain? :/

If in stem and leaf, lower quartile/upper quartile's position is lets say 7.25, do we take 8th value?
