Question

Find the distance between each pair of parallel lines with the given equations.
y=1/3x-3
y=1/3x+2

Answer 1

Ordered pair (0,-3) belongs to the first equation,
Ordered pair (0,2) belongs to the second equation,
Formula for distance between 2 points is
d=√((x2-x1)^2+(y2-y1)^2)
d=√((0-0)^2+(2-(-3) )^2 )=√(5^2 )=5
Distance between 2 parallel lines is 5

Answer 2

2+3 =5
