Question

PLS HELP WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!!! Find the distance between $y=-5/6x-1$ and the parallel line that passes through (6,−4). Round your answer to the nearest tenth.

Answer 1

The parallel line to the first equation passing through (6,-4) would be y=(-5/6)+1. With the two points that I picked, I can conclude that the distance between the two lines would be 2.4 units.

|-1.2-1.2| since distance cannot be negative
