The general equation of a plane is Ax + By + Cz = D, where A, B, C, and D are real numbers and A is nonnegative. Find the equation of the plane containing the points (3, 0, 0), (0, 8, 0), and (0, 0, show your work!!

just plug in

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A*3 + B*8 + C*(missing value) = D

hm

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i also need to know how to graph it when i get it.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you missing a z

OpenStudy (anonymous):

this is the graph... lol it's so confusing :( http://i45.tinypic.com/sy09it.png

OpenStudy (anonymous):

maybe this will help

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ax + By + Cz = D so it would become 3+8+6?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

because c is (0,0,6)
