Find the point on the line 2x + 3y + 5 = 0 which is closest to the point (5, 0).
Write y as a linear function of the variable x.
y = -((2x+5)/3)
Find the function f(x) that can be used to minimize this distance using the hint, if necessary. Remember, the root is not needed.
f(x) =
Find the first derivative of f(x) with respect to x.
Find the coordinates of the point on the line 2x + 3y + 5 = 0 that is closest to the point (5, 0).
