The discussion revolves around determining the distance between specific points and lines, involving graphical representations and calculations in geometry.
The conversation is ongoing, with participants actively correcting each other’s interpretations and calculations. Some have offered specific values for the distance, while others are still exploring the implications of their graphical representations.
There appears to be confusion regarding the signs of the intercepts in the graphs, which has led to differing conclusions about the correct distance. Participants are also reflecting on the impact of fatigue on their calculations.
Ugh, a sign mistake.LCKurtz said:Your graph is incorrect. The y intercept should be positive and the x intercept negative. And my answer (posting when tired) in post #1 (and yours) is incorrect . The correct answer should be ##\frac {21}{\sqrt{29}}##.
