Answer:
( 16.75 , 0 )
Step-by-step explanation:
Find a point on x-axis such that it is at the same distance from the point (- 6 ,4) and (2, - 18)
solution
let the point be ( x , 0 )
(x - 2)² + 18² = (x +6²) + 4²
x² - 4x +328 = x² + 12x +52
12x +52 = - 4x +328
16x = 276
x = 276/16
x = 69/4 = 16.75
the point is ( 16.75 , 0 )
