Find the​ y-coordinates of the points that are 5 units away from the point left parenthesis 1 comma 3 right parenthesis that have an​ x-coordinate of negative 3 .

Respuesta :

The x-distance to the points of interest is 1 - (-3) = 4. The straight-line distance is 5, so the y-distance can be computed using the Pythagorean theorem as
  y-distance = √(5²-4²) = √9 = 3

Your points have y-coordinates of 3±3, or 0 and 6.

Answer:

0, 6

Step-by-step explanation:

To find :  y-coordinates of the points that are 5 units away from the point left parenthesis 1 comma 3 right parenthesis that have an​ x-coordinate of negative 3

Given:

Point left parenthesis 1 comma 3 right parenthesis i.e point [tex]\left (1 ,3 \right )[/tex]

Also, point is 5 units away from the point left parenthesis 1 comma 3 right parenthesis such that it's x - coordinate is negative 3 i.e, - 3

Distance between points [tex]\left ( -3,y \right )\, \,\left (1 ,3 \right )[/tex] is 5 units,

[tex]\sqrt{(1+3)^2+(3-y)^2}=5\\\sqrt{16+9+y^2-6y}=5\\\sqrt{25+y^2-6y}=5\\y^2-6y+25=25\\y^2-6y=0\\y(y-6)=0\\y=0\,,\,6[/tex]

{ as distance between points [tex]\left ( x_1,y_1 \right )\,,\,\left ( x_2,y_2 \right )[/tex] is equal to [tex]\sqrt{\left ( x_2-x_1 \right )^2+\left ( y_2-y_1 \right )^2}[/tex] }
