The length of the new line, between the given point and the newly-found intersection point, is the distance between the point and the original line. To find the distance, subtract the x and y values to get the x and y displacements. Therefore, there is no specific equation!

The minimum distance from the point to the line would be found by drawing a segment perpendicular to the line directly to the point. Our first step is to find the equation of the new line that connects the point to the line given in the problem. Because we know this new line is perpendicular to the line we're finding the distance

Answer:

B. A cow of 5 years is predicted to produce 5.5 more gallons per week.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let $M(a) = 40.8-1.1\cdot a$ , where $a$ is the age of the dairy cow, measured in years, and $M(a)$ is the predicted milk production, measured in gallons per week.

Besides, we consider $a_{1}$ and $a_{2}$ , such that $a_{1}\ne a_{2}$ , we define the difference between predicted milk productions ( $\Delta M$ ) below:
