Find the distance from point A(−1/4, 5) to the line −x+2y = 14. Round your answer to the nearest tenth.

Given:

Point is .

Line is .

To find:

Distance from point A to given line.

Solution:

The distance of point from line is

Using the above formula, the distance from to the line is

Therefore, the required distance is 1.7 units.

the discriminant is 64 + 4*1*12 = 112

this is prime.

step-by-step explanation:

your answer would be 12
