3/4 x -18 = 1/4 x -4
subtract 1/4 x from each side
3/4 x -1/4 x -18 = 1/4 x- 1/4 x -4
2/4 x - 18 = -4
add 18 to each side
1/2 x -18 + 18 = -4 + 18
1/2 x =14
multiply by 2 on each side
2* 1/2 x = 14 * 2
x =28
Use the Pythagorean Theorem: .
So your straight line distance is 10.
We can also recognize this as a multiple of the 3-4-5 Pythagorean triple. We have , with x being the desired value. Therefore x=10, like previously.
