Chapter 11.1, Problem 16E

To determine

Tofind:Thecoordinates of the point for the given position of x , y and z .

Answer to Problem 16E

Thecoordinates of the point is $\left(8,-2,-2\right)$ .

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

The point is located eight units in front of the yz -plane. Two units to the left of the xz -plane. Two units below the xy -plane.

Calculation:

Let’s the point is located eight units in front of the yz -plane. So, the value of x would be 8.

The point is located two units to theleft of the xz -plane. So, the value of y would be $-2$ .

The point is located two units below the xy -plane. So, the value of z would be $-2$ . Hence, the coordinates of the point is $\left(8,-2,-2\right)$ .

Therefore, the coordinates of the point is $\left(8,-2,-2\right)$ .
