Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

So first I created 2 distance forumlas and set them equal to each other

$\sqrt{(5+1)^2+(k-2)^2} =\sqrt{(5-3)^2+(k)^2}$

then I simplified them

$(5+1)^2+(k-2)^2 =(5-3)^2+(k)^2\\$

$36 + k^2 - 4k +4 = k^2 + 4$

$-4k + 36 = 0\\$

$4k = 36$

$k = 9$

when k = 9, the two distances are equal

The graph below represents which system of inequalities? graph of two infinite lines that intersect at a point. One line is soli

Triss [41]

(0,2)(-2,0)
slope = (0 - 2) / -2 - 0) = -2/-2 = 1
(0,2)...x = 0 and y = 2
sub and find b, the y int
2 = 1(0) + b
2 = b
equation is : y = x + 2......solid line, means there is an equal sign....shaded below the line means less then....
ur inequality for this line is : y < = x + 2

(0,6)(3,0)
slope = (0 - 6) / (3 - 0) = -6/3 = -2

y = mx + b
slope(m) = -2
(0,6)...x = 0 and y = 6
sub and find b, the y int
6 = -2(0) + b
6 = b

ur equation is : y = -2x + 6....dashed line means there is no equal sign...and shading below the line means less then...
so ur inequality of this line is : y < -2x + 6

In summary, ur 2 inequalities are : y < = x + 2 and y < -2x + 6
