A math quiz problem from a university course, math 206a. The problem involves finding the point of intersection between two lines, the vector that is perpendicular to the plane determined by the lines, and the equation of that plane. Additionally, the problem asks for a sketch of a vector-valued function and the values of t for which the path crosses the y-axis.

` 1 (t) =
(3, 4 , 5) + t
(1, 2 , 3) and
` 2 (s) =
(โ 4 , 2 , 8) + s
(3, 2 , 1), respectively. 1a. What point P is on the first line (
` 1 ), when t = 2? 1b. It turns out this same point P is on the second line. Find the value of s for which
` 2 (s). 1c. Since P is on both lines, these lines determine a plane. Find a vector n which is perpendicular to that plane. 1d. Find the equation of that plane, in the form ax + by + cz = d. 2A. Use your calculator do make a good sketch of the path given by the vector-valued function โโ f (T ) =
(T (T 2 โ 3), T 2 โ 4) = T (T 2 โ 3)i + (T 2 โ 4)j on the domain T โ [โ 2. 25 , 2 .25]. 2B. For what values of T does this path cross the y-axis?
