Question

Write one or more inequalities that describe the set of points. -The rectangular solid in the first octant bounded by the planes x = 5, x = 8, y = 7, y = 9, z = 6 and z = 7 (planes excluded) A) The given planes do not form a rectangular solid B) x < y < z C) 5 < x < 8; 7 < y < 9; 6 < z < 7 D) x < 5, x > 8; y < 7, y > 9; z < 6, z > 7

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The set of points is bounded by the planes x = 5, x = 8, y = 7, y = 9, z = 6 and z = 7. Excluding these planes, we get the inequalities 5 < x < 8, 7 < y < 9, and 6 < z < 7. Therefore, the answer is C.
