Question

find the point on the X axis which is equidistant from (2,5) and (2,9)​

Answer 1

Answer:

(7,0)

Step-by-step explanation:We have to find a point on x-axis. Therefore, its y-coordinate will be 0. Let the point on x-axis be (x,0) (x - 2)2 + 25 = (x - 2)2 + 81 x2 + 4 - 4x + 25 = x2 + 4 + 4x + 81 8x = 25 -81 8x = -56 x = -7 Therefore, the point is ( - 7, 0)
