Let P(1,3, 5) and Q(-4,3, –7) be points in R³. (a) Set up a three-dimensional rectangular coordinate system for R' and plot both P and Q. Be sure to label all of your axes on the positive side of the axes, draw tick marks, and provide a scale. (b) Find |PQ|- (c) Find an equation for the sphere centered at P that passes through Q.
