3x + 4y = 16 Write original equation 3x + 4y - 4y = -4y + 16 Subtract 4y from each side 3x = -4y +16 Simplify 3x/3 = -4y/3 + 16/3 Divide each side by three x = -4y/3 +16/3 Simplify
The distance between two points is given by: d² = (x₂-x₁)² + (y₂ - y₁)² 9 = (x₂ - 4)² + (y₂ - 2)² Now, we can check different ordered pairs in this equation to see which satisfies it: The one that satisfies this equation is (4 , -1).
