At first we need to know how to find the distance between two parallel lines
The parallel lines which have the same slope
If we have two parallel lines ⇒ y₁ = mx + c₁ and y₂ = mx + c₂
So, the distance between y₁ and y₂ = d =
========================================================
Part (1):
=======
<span>The distance between the lines
</span>
<span> Y₁ = 3x + 10 and Y₂ = 3x - 20</span>
∴ m = 3 , c₁ = 10 and c₂ = -20
∴ d =
========================================================
Part (2):
=======
<span>The distance between the lines
</span>
Y₁ = <span>3/2 x + 3/2</span> and Y₂ = <span>3/2 x - 5</span>
∴ m = 3/2 = 1.5 , c₁ = 3/2 = 1.5 and c₂ = -5
∴ d =
