Find the distance from point P to the given line

The distance from point P, P(-2,4) to the given line y= 2x-2 is 1.56

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the distance from point P to the given line

P(-2,4) , y= 2x-2

The formula used is:

Where A, B and C are points of line i.e Ax+By+C=0

and x_1 and y_1 are points of P

So, y=2x-2 in Ax+By+C=0 is:

2x-y-2=0

A=2,

B=-1

C=1

Point given is P(-2,4)

x_1=-2

y_1=4

Putting values and finding distance

So,  the distance from point P, P(-2,4) to the given line y= 2x-2 is 1.56

x=17

step-by-step explanation:

solve 3x-24=x+10

then that makes it 2x=34 because you subtract an x from both sides to get rid of the one on the right, and then you add 24 to both sides to get rid of the 24 on the left

divide by both sides by 2 to get your answer so that you can get your answer
