12. determine the shortest distance from the
point d(5, 4) to the line represented by
3x + 5y - 4 = 0.

i got my distance as the square root of 26890600/12027024
but i’m fairly certain that’s incorrect.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of a distance between a point (x₀, y₀) and a line Ax + By + C = 0:

We have the point D(5, 4) and the line 3x + 5y - 4 = 0.

Substitute:

the naturalist literary movement was an extension of the realist literary movement, a movement that strove to portray life as it really was hope it

step-by-step explanation:

3

step-by-step explanation:

in standard form:

a= dictionaries

b= maps

you have to buy 3 dictionaries, so put a 3 next to the a (dictionaries) so that you can multiply them by each other.

a3+b= 60 (the amount of money you have)

we already know the cost of a=15 so replace a with $15

($15 x 3)+b=60

multiply 15 and 3 to get $45 and replace it with $45

45+b=60

and then replace b with 15 to get the total:

45+15=60

that means you have $15 left after buying 3 dictionaries.

15 divided by the cost of a map ($5) equals 3.

so you can buy 3 maps.

sorry if it was confusing!
