Step-by-step explanation:
it is given that the distance between the points A(x,–1) and B(8,2) is 5 units.
AB = 5
AB² = 5²
(8–X) ²+(2+1)² = 5²
(64+x²–16x)+3² = 25
x²–16x+64+9 = 25
x²–16x+73 = 25
x²–16x+73–25 = 0
x²–16x+48 = 0
x²–12x–4x+48 = 0
x(x–12)–4(x–12) = 0
(x–12)(x–4) = 0
_________________________________
x–12 = 0. and. x–4 = 0
X = 12. x =4.
Hence, the value X is 12 and 4.
