Question

Directions: Type the correct answer in the box. Use numerals instead of words.


Consider the equations of the two lines shown below.



Find the distance between the two lines.























The distance between line 1 and line 2, rounded to the nearest hundredth, is units.

Answer 1

so they are parallel. write eqution of a line perpendicular to the lines. find where they intersect. find the distance between those pointsa

Answer 2

perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal slopes

Answer 3

y=3/5x+2
y=3/5x-1 perpendicular line is y=-5/3x for example.

y=-5/3x y=3/5x-1
y=3/5x+2 solve this system and then ths system y==-5/3x

Answer 4

x=-15/17--->y=25/17 for the first system
