1. **Top-left: Find parametric equation of line through P(-8,5,3) parallel to xy and xz planes.**
- A line parallel to the xy-plane has constant $z$.
- A line parallel to the xz-plane has constant $y$.
Since the line is parallel to both planes, it must be parallel to the $x$-axis (varying $x$, constant $y$ and $z$).
Parametric form:
$$\{x = -8 + t, y = 5, z = 3\}$$
2. **Top-right: Find intersection points of lines with coordinate planes.**
(a) Line: $x=1-10t$, $y=-10t$, $z=6t+4$
- $xy$-plane: $z=0 \Rightarrow 6t+4=0 \Rightarrow t=-\frac{2}{3}$
$$x=1-10(-\frac{2}{3})=1+\frac{20}{3}=\frac{23}{3}, y=-10(-\frac{2}{3})=\frac{20}{3}, z=0$$
- $yz$-plane: $x=0 \Rightarrow 1-10t=0 \Rightarrow t=\frac{1}{10}$
$$x=0, y=-10(\frac{1}{10})=-1, z=6(\frac{1}{10})+4=\frac{6}{10}+4=\frac{26}{5}$$
- $xz$-plane: $y=0 \Rightarrow -10t=0 \Rightarrow t=0$
$$x=1, y=0, z=4$$
(b) $\mathbf{r} = 5\mathbf{j} + 4\mathbf{k} + \lambda(3\mathbf{i} - 2\mathbf{j} - 10\mathbf{k})$
- Parametric: $x=3\lambda$, $y=5 - 2\lambda$, $z=4 - 10\lambda$
- $xy$-plane: $z=0 \Rightarrow 4 - 10\lambda=0 \Rightarrow \lambda=\frac{2}{5}$
$$x=3(\frac{2}{5})=\frac{6}{5}, y=5 - 2(\frac{2}{5})=5 - \frac{4}{5}=\frac{21}{5}, z=0$$
- $yz$-plane: $x=0 \Rightarrow 3\lambda=0 \Rightarrow \lambda=0$
$$x=0, y=5, z=4$$
- $xz$-plane: $y=0 \Rightarrow 5 - 2\lambda=0 \Rightarrow \lambda=\frac{5}{2}$
$$x=3(\frac{5}{2})=\frac{15}{2}, y=0, z=4 - 10(\frac{5}{2})=4 - 25 = -21$$
(c) $x=\frac{10}{4}=2.5$, $y + \frac{7}{4} = z = \frac{6}{3} = 2 = \alpha$
- $xy$-plane: $z=0$ but $z=2$ constant, no intersection.
- $yz$-plane: $x=0$ but $x=2.5$ constant, no intersection.
- $xz$-plane: $y=0$ implies $y + \frac{7}{4} = 0 \Rightarrow y = -\frac{7}{4}$, but $y + \frac{7}{4} = z = 2$, so $z=2$, so point is $(2.5, -\frac{7}{4}, 2)$
3. **Middle-left: Determine if pairs of lines intersect.**
(a) Lines:
$x=99-9t$, $y=81-90t$, $z=3t$
$x=27t$, $y=45$, $z=32t$
Set equal:
$99-9t=27s$, $81-90t=45$, $3t=32s$
From $y$: $81-90t=45 \Rightarrow 90t=36 \Rightarrow t=\frac{2}{5}$
From $z$: $3(\frac{2}{5})=32s \Rightarrow \frac{6}{5}=32s \Rightarrow s=\frac{3}{80}$
From $x$: $99 - 9(\frac{2}{5})=27(\frac{3}{80}) \Rightarrow 99 - \frac{18}{5} = \frac{81}{80}$
Calculate LHS: $99 - 3.6 = 95.4$; RHS: $1.0125$ no equality, so no intersection.
(b) $\mathbf{r} = 2\mathbf{i} - 3\mathbf{j} + \lambda(7\mathbf{i} - 5\mathbf{j} - 9\mathbf{k})$
$\mathbf{r} = 36\mathbf{i} - 8\mathbf{j} - 333\mathbf{k} + \mu(63\mathbf{i} - 15\mathbf{k})$
Set components equal and solve for $\lambda, \mu$; no consistent solution found, so no intersection.
(c) $z + \frac{33}{7} = y + \frac{32}{7} = \frac{10}{3} \alpha$
$z + \frac{565}{70} = \frac{388}{49} = \frac{3.146}{18} \alpha$
No clear parametric form; insufficient info to find intersection.
(d) $\mathbf{r} = -54\mathbf{i} + 13\mathbf{j} - 78\mathbf{k} + \lambda(5\mathbf{i} + \mathbf{j} + 7\mathbf{k})$
$\mathbf{r} = -74\mathbf{i} + 24\mathbf{j} + 50\mathbf{k} + \mu(35\mathbf{i} - 3\mathbf{j} - 14\mathbf{k})$
Solve system; no consistent solution, no intersection.
(e) Lines:
$x=3t-19$, $y=50-8t$, $z=4t-37$
$x=12s+110$, $y=-80s-726$, $z=4s-45$
Set equal:
$3t-19=12s+110$, $50-8t=-80s-726$, $4t-37=4s-45$
From $z$: $4t-37=4s-45 \Rightarrow 4t - 4s = -8 \Rightarrow t - s = -2$
From $x$: $3t - 19 = 12s + 110 \Rightarrow 3t - 12s = 129$
Substitute $t = s - 2$:
$3(s - 2) - 12s = 129 \Rightarrow 3s - 6 - 12s = 129 \Rightarrow -9s = 135 \Rightarrow s = -15$
Then $t = -15 - 2 = -17$
Check $y$: $50 - 8(-17) = 50 + 136 = 186$
$-80(-15) - 726 = 1200 - 726 = 474$
Not equal, so no intersection.
