Supposse that the distance from the point
to the point
is equal to the distance from
to the point
. Then, by the formula of the distnace we must have

cancel the square root and the
's, and then expand the parenthesis to obtain

then, simplifying we obtain

therfore we must have

this means that the points satisfying the propertie must have first component equal to 5. So we can give a lot of examples of such points:
. The set of this points give us a straight line and the points (3,0) and (7,0) are symmetric with respect to this line.
the answer is b
X is a bigger number and the difference between x and y is 7, so x-y=7. And it says that the sum of two numbers is 31 so x+y=31
You want to isolate x. To accomplish this, add 1.4 to both sides of your eqn.:
x = 7.82 + 1.4 = 9.22 (answer)
Is their any multiple questions
