  2. Warm Up Graph each of the following points in the coordinate plane. 1.A(2, –1) 2.B(–4, 2) 3. Find the intercepts of the line . x: –9; y: 3

  3. Objective Graph points and linear equations in three dimensions.

  4. Vocabulary three-dimensional coordinate system ordered triple z-axis

  5. A Global Positioning System (GPS) gives locations using the three coordinates of latitude, longitude, and elevation. You can represent any location in three-dimensional space using a three-dimensional coordinate system, sometimes called coordinate space.

  6. Each point in coordinate space can be represented by an ordered triple of the form (x, y, z). The system is similar to the coordinate plane but has an additional coordinate based on the z-axis. Notice that the axes form three planes that intersect at the origin.

  7. Helpful Hint To find an intercept in coordinate space, set the other two coordinates equal to 0.

  8. z y x Example 1A: Graphing Points in Three Dimensions Graph the point in three-dimensional space. A(3, –2, 1) From the origin, move 3 units forward along the x-axis, 2 units left, and 1 unit up. A(3, –2, 1) 

  9. z y x Example 1B: Graphing Points in Three Dimensions Graph the point in three-dimensional space. B(2, –1, –3) From the origin, move 2 units forward along the x-axis, 1 unit left, and 3 units down.  B(2, –1, –3)

  10. z y x Example 1C: Graphing Points in Three Dimensions Graph the point in three-dimensional space. C(–1, 0, 2) C(–1,0, 2) From the origin, move 1 unit back along the x-axis, 2 units up. Notice that this point lies in the xz-plane because the y-coordinate is 0. 

  11. z y x Check It Out! Example 1a Graph the point in three-dimensional space. D(1, 3, –1) From the origin, move 1 unit forward along the x-axis, 3 units right, and 1 unit down.  D(1, 3, –1)

  12. z y x Check It Out! Example 1b Graph the point in three-dimensional space. E(1, –3, 1) From the origin, move 1 unit forward along the x-axis, 3 units left, and 1 unit up. E(1, –3, 1) 

  13. z y x Check It Out! Example 1c Graph the point in three-dimensional space. F(0, 0, 3) F(0, 0, 3) From the origin, move 3 units up. 

  14. Recall that the graph of a linear equation in two dimensions is a straight line. In three-dimensional space, the graph of a linear equation is a plane. Because a plane is defined by three points, you can graph linear equations in three dimensions by finding the three intercepts.

  15. Example 2: Graphing Linear Equations in Three Dimensions Graph the linear equation 2x – 3y + z = –6 in three-dimensional space. Step 1 Find the intercepts: x-intercept: 2x – 3(0) + (0) = –6 x = –3 y-intercept: 2(0) – 3y + (0) = –6 y = 2 z-intercept: 2(0) – 3(0) + z = –6 z = –6

  16. z y x Example 2 Continued Step 2 Plot the points (–3, 0, 0), (0, 2, 0), and (0, 0, –6). Sketch a plane through the three points.  (–3, 0, 0)  (0, 2, 0)  (0, 0, –6)

  17. Check It Out! Example 2 Graph the linear equation x – 4y + 2z = 4 in three-dimensional space. Step 1 Find the intercepts: x-intercept: x – 4(0) + 2(0) = 4 x = 4 y-intercept: (0) – 4y + 2(0) = 4 y = –1 z-intercept: (0) – 4(0) + 2z = 4 z = 2

  18. z y x Check It Out! Example 2 Continued (0, 0, 2) Step 2 Plot the points (4, 0, 0), (0, –1, 0), and (0, 0, 2). Sketch a plane through the three points.  (0, –1, 0)  ● (4, 0, 0)

  19. Example 3A: Sports Application Track relay teams score 5 points for finishing first, 3 for second, and 1 for third. Lin’s team scored a total of 30 points. Write a linear equation in three variables to represent this situation. Let f = number of races finished first, s = number of races finished second, and t = number of races finished third. + + = Points for third 1t Points for first 5f Points for second 3s 30 + + = 30 +

  20. Example 3B: Sports Application If Lin’s team finishes second in six events and third in two events, in how many eventsdid it finish first? 5f + 3s + t = 30 Use the equation from A. 5f + 3(6) + (2) = 30 Substitute 6 for s and 2 for t. f = 2 Solve for f. Linn’s team placed first in two events.

  21. Check It Out! Example 3a Steve purchased $61.50 worth of supplies for a hiking trip. The supplies included flashlights for $3.50 each, compasses for $1.50 each, and water bottles for $0.75 each. Write a linear equation in three variables to represent this situation. Let x = number of flashlights, y = number of compasses, and z = number of water bottles. + + = water bottles 0.75z flashlights 3.50x compasses 1.50y 61.50 + = + 61.50

  22. Check It Out! Example 3b Steve purchased 6 flashlights and 24 water bottles. How many compasses did he purchase? 3.5x + 1.5y + 0.75z = 61.50 Use the equation from a. 3.5(6) + 1.5y + 0.75(24) = 61.50 Substitute 6 for x and 24 for z. 21 + 1.5y + 18 = 61.50 1.5y = 22.5 Solve for y. y = 15 Steve purchased 15 compasses.

Write a linear equation in three variables to represent this situation. 0.2x + 0.3y +0.25z = 6 b. If Lily buys 6 pencils and 6 erasers, how many pens can she buy? 11
