To ease your problem, consider "L" as you x-axis
Then the coordinate become:
A(- 4 , 3) and B(1 , 2) [you notice that just the y's changed]
This is a reflection problem.
Reflect point B across the river line "L" to get B', symmetric of B about L.
The coordinates of B'(1 , -1) [remember L is our new x-axis]
JOIN A to B' . AB' intersect L, say in H
We have to find the shortest way such that AH + HB = shortest.
But HB = HB' (symmetry about L) , then I can write instead of
AH + HB →→ AH + HB'. This is the shortest since the shortest distance between 2 points is the straight line and H is the point requiered
Answer:
1. D y = 8
2. C y = −8
Step-by-step explanation:
1.Both points have y-coordinate 8, so the line is horizontal.
A horizontal line has equation y = k
where k is the y-coordinate of all of its points.
The y-coordinate of all points on this line is 8.
Answer: y = 8
2.A line with 0 slope is a horizontal line. All points on a horizontal line have the same y-coordinate.
A horizontal line has equation
y = k
where k is the y-coordinate of all of its points.
The y-coordinate of the given point is -8, so all points must have -8 as the y-coordinate.
Answer: y = -8
