I hope B(5,0)
Given :
The point P on x-axis equidistant from the points A(-1,0) and B(5,0).
To find :
What is the point ?
Solution :
As the point is on x-axis the y-coordinate is zero i.e. P=(x,0)
Now, Point P is equidistant from A(-1,0) and B(5,0) so distance is same.
i.e. AP=PB
Applying distance formula,
Therefore, the point is P=(2,0).
