I don’t understand. Could you break the question down?
20 in should be the correct answer
Where’s the graph ? I think you’ll need to show the graph in order for us to help you
-26n -22= n - 90
-26 times a number: -26n
minus 22: -22
equal: =
90 less than a number: n - 90
Solving the Equation:
Move n to the left side of the equal sign (which becomes -n) in order to combine like terms:
-26n-n-22= -90
Move -22 to the right side of the equal sign which becomes +22
-26n-n=-90+22
solve both sides; -26n-n= -27n and -90+ 22= -78
-27n=-78
n= 2.888888
The distance from P to n is
1+1+1+1+1 = 5
Because the distance is the perpendicular from P to the line n.
