Question

Verify that point P = (2, 1, 1) is on the surface defined by the equation:

a. Check if P satisfies the equation
b. Determine the slope at point P
c. Find the area under the curve at P
d. Evaluate the integral at point P

Answer 1

To determine if point P = (2, 1, 1) lies on a surface, we must substitute P into the surface equation. However, without the surface's equation, we cannot find the slope at P, the area under the curve at P, or evaluate the integral at P.

Step-by-step explanation:

To verify that point P = (2, 1, 1) is on a given surface, we must substitute the coordinates of P into the surface's equation and check whether the equation is satisfied. For part (b), we need to find the derivative of the surface equation with respect to one of the coordinates and evaluate it at P to determine the slope at that point. It is important to note that without an explicit function or equation for the surface, we cannot correctly perform parts (b), (c), and (d) of the question. For part (c), generally, we compute the area under a curve using integration, but again, the actual method will depend on the specific function associated with the curve. The integral in part (d) cannot be evaluated without an integrand function.
