The distance between two points is 5. The coordinates of the points are:

(2, 1) and (x, 5). There are 2 possible values for x. Find these values.

The smaller value of x = ?

The larger value of x = ?

Answer :

Answer:

d = √(x_2 - x_1)² + (y_2-y_1)²

5 = √(x - 2)² + (5-2)²

x = -3 or x =6

Step-by-step explanation:

d = √(x_2 - x_1)² + (y_2-y_1)²) - that is the distance formula

d = 5

x_2 = x

x_1 = 2

y_2 = 5

y_1 = 1

5 = √(x - 2)² + (5-2)²

x = -3 or x =6

Hoped this helped!
