Let there exists a point (x, y) on the given line.
Slope of all points must be same, as they lie on the same line.
=> (y - 1)/(x - 2) = (4 - 1)/(-4 - 2)
=> (y - 1)/(x - 2) = - 1/2
=> y - 1 = (-½) (x - 2)
Option 1 is the correct option
Using the rectangular route Mike rides 12 miles. If he rides diagonally the distance is √2²+10²=√4+100=√104.
The difference between the two routes is 12-√104=1.80 miles approximately.
