I’m a little confused with this? Can someone walk me through this?

A. 5.8

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given graph d has two coordinates;

the first coordinates of d = (0, 0)

the second coordinate of d = (-3 , -5), that is x = -3 when traced up and y = -5 when traced horizontal

The distance between the two coordinates = distance of d;

Option A is correct

yes the total will be same because in both of them the expression.is rearranged but their sign remains the same hence it hss just been shuffled

step-by-step explanation:

points a and b are equidistant from the desired line, so the line you find by using them will go through point r.

using points other than a and b will give the desired line only if they are equidistant from r. if they are randomly located, the perpendicular line you create will not necessarily go through point r, hence will not be a solution to the problem.
