Find x so the distance between (x, 2)and (3, 3) is sgrt 5.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "I know that you need to use the distance formula, however I do not know how to get rid of the x.
\n" ); document.write( "---------------
\n" ); document.write( "You don't get rid of it, you solve for it.
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "Use the distance formula:
\n" ); document.write( "\"diffy%5E2+%2B+diffx%5E2+=+5\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"1%5E2+%2B+%28x-3%29%5E2+=+5\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"%28x-3%29%5E2+=+4\"
\n" ); document.write( "x-3 = 2 --> x = 5
\n" ); document.write( "------------
\n" ); document.write( "x-3 = -2 --> x = 1
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
