A house is built on coordinates (2,9). There is a water pipeline that runs along the line y = 2 3 x – 1. What is the approximate shortest length of new pipeline needed to connect the house to the existing pipeline?

7.21 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The shortest length needed to connect the house to the existing pipeline is the perpendicular distance between the location of the house (2,9) and the line y = 2/3x - 1.

The perpendicular distance (d) between a point () and the line Ax + By + C  = 0 is given as:

The line is given by y = 2/3 x - 1; 2/3x - y - 1 = 0. The point = (2, 9)

hence A = 2/3, B = -1, C = -1, . Therefore:

0

step-by-step explanation:

you can not divide by 0 so 4 ÷ 0 would be 0

0 × 9999 =0
