Answer:
The distance is
or
.
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope of parallel: 2
Slope of perpendicular: -1/2
Pick a point for y =2x + 7. For example (0,7)
Use the perpendicular slope to get to the other line to find the other point of y=2x-3. Look at the screenshot...I got (4,5).
Distance formula 
Insert (0,7) and (4,5)
= 
The foci need to be equal distances from the center of the eclipse.
See the attached picture. I marked off all the points that were given as choice and from this you can see that that (-5,-4) and (-5,2) are both 3 units away from the center.
The answer is: (-5,-4) and (-5,2)
Answer:
a = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
Combine like terms 6a + 5a = 11a
11a = -11
Divide -11 by 11
-11/11 = -1
