Question 910157
2x+y-88=0 
The line connecting (2,84) and (178, -268)

d=(|Ax+By+C|)/(sqrt(A^2+B^2)

formula for this line
Distance=(|2(x)+(1)(y)-88|)/(sqrt(2^2+1^2))
d=(|2(136)+(1)(31)-88|)/(sqrt(2^2+1^2))=96.151
D=(|2(-49)+(1)(-44)-88|)/(sqrt(2^2+1^2))=102.86

(-49, -44) and (136, 31). 

d = 43 sqrt(5),   D = 46 sqrt(5)
d=96.151,   D=102.86
(136, 31)is the closest
