Question

Line with slope 2 passes through point (3, 8). What is the distance between this line and the point (8, 3)?

Answer 1

yeah i need help with this one too

Answer 2

Answer$3\sqrt{5}$

Explanation:

not going to put all the details in but I will put in the process i used.  So first you had to find the equation of the first line using the point-slope formula.  Then you find the equation of the line perpendicular to that using the slope (-1/2 since it's perpendicular).  Then you find the intersection of the two lines and write that point down.  then use the distance formula to find the distance between the two points.
