Let \(E\) be the ellipsoid \(x^{2} / 9+y^{2} / 4+z^{2}=1, P\) be the plane \(z=A x+B y,\) and \(C\) be the intersection of \(E\) and \(P\). a. Is \(C\) an ellipse for all values of \(A\) and \(B\) ? Explain. b. Sketch and interpret the situation in which \(A=0\) and \(B \neq 0\). c. Find an equation of the projection of \(C\) on the \(x y\) -plane. d. Assume \(A=\frac{1}{6}\) and \(B=\frac{1}{2} .\) Find a parametric description of \(C\) as a curve in \(\mathbb{R}^{3}\). (Hint: Assume \(C\) is described by \(\langle a \cos t+b \sin t, c \cos t+d \sin t, e \cos t+f \sin t\rangle\) and find \(a, b, c, d, e, \text { and } f .)\)
Temperature of an elliptical plate The temperature of points on an elliptical plate \(x^{2}+y^{2}+x y \leq 1\) is given by \(T(x,y)=25\left(x^{2}+y^{2}\right) .\) Find the hottest and coldest temperatures on the edge of the elliptical plate.
Find an equation of the plane passing through (0,-2,4) that is orthogonal to the planes \(2 x+5 y-3 z=0\) and \(-x+5 y+2 z=8\)
Show that $$\lim _{(x, y) \rightarrow(0,0)} \frac{a x^{2(p-n)} y^{n}}{b x^{2 p}+c y^{p}} \text { does }$$ not exist when \(a, b,\) and \(c\) are nonzero real numbers and \(n\) and \(p\) are positive integers with \(p \geq n\)
Use the formal definition of a limit to prove that $$\lim _{(x, y) \rightarrow(a, b)}(f(x, y)+g(x, y))=\lim _{(x, y) \rightarrow(a, b)} f(x, y)+$$ $$\lim _{(x, y) \rightarrow(a, b)} g(x, y)$$
