Equations and Inequations
Equations and inequalities describe the relationship between two mathematical expressions.
Linear Functions
A linear function can just be a constant, or it can be the constant multiplied with the variable like x or y. If the variables are of the form, x2, x1/2 or y2 it is not linear. The exponent over the variables should always be 1.

To determine

To explain: what is happening when the distance formula is applied in the given situation.

Expert Solution & Answer
Check Mark

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

Situation I: the line is vertical.

Situation II: the line is horizontal.

Calculation:

The formula for the distance from a point to line is as follows:

  d=|Ax1+By1+C|±A2+B2

The sign of radical is opposite to the sign of C . The negative sign of the distance indicates that the origin and point are on the same side of the line whereas the positive sign of the distance indicates that the origin and point are on the opposite side of the line.

The formula is valid in either situation. For a vertical line Ax the formula subtracts A from the x coordinate of the point. The distance formula for vertical line is d=|By1+C|±B .

For a horizontal line By the formula subtracts B from the y coordinate of the point. The distance formula for horizontal line is d=|Ax1+C|±A .
