Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
To get the shortest distance from a point to a line, we need to find a perpendicular line that intersects the line and also intersects the line. We know the slope of the line will be 1/2, but to find the y-intercept, we can just plug it into the point because we already know it will be on the line.
-3 = 1/2(-2)+c
-3 = -1+c
-2 = c
Now, we know the slope and the y-intercept, and since it will intersect the other line, we can set it equal to the other lines formula:
1/2x-2 = -2x+6
5/2x=8
x=16/5
Now, plugging this value of x into any of the equations, we can find the y-coordinate:
16/5(1/2)-2 = -2/5
We have the point (16/5, -2/5)
Now, we need to find the distance between (-2, -3) and (16/5, -2/5)
Plugging into distance formula:
=

To convert a fraction to simplest form we need to find the
greatest common factor. The fraction can not be simplified because it is already in simplest form but we can change it to a mixed fraction.
