Answer:
12.1
Step-by-step explanation:
The dashed line joining M₁ and M₂ is the hypotenuse of a right triangle as shown in red below.
The base of the triangle is
x₂ - x₁ = 2 - (-3) = 2+ 3 = 5
The height of the triangle is
y₂ - y₁ = 16 - 5 = 11
We can now use Pythagoras' theorem to calculate distance between the two midpoints.
x² = 5² + 11² = 25 + 121 = 146
x = √146 =
12.1
The distance between M₁ and M₂ is 12.1.
10x + 2y = -2
2y = -10x -2
y = -5x - 1 (slope is -5 and a parallel line will have the same slope)
y = mx + b
slope(m) = -5
12 = -5(0) + b
12 = 0 + b
12 = b
so the parallel line is y = -5x + 12
hope this helps, God bless!
