Question:
Find the value of \( k \) if the distance between \((k, 3)\) and \((2, 3)\) is 5.
Choices:
5
6
7
8
Correct Answer: 7
Explanation:
To determine the value of \( k \), we use the distance formula between two points \((x_1, y_1)\) and \((x_2, y_2)\) in a Cartesian plane:
\[ D = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2} \]
Here, the given points are \((k, 3)\) and \((2, 3)\) and the distance \( D \) between them is 5. The distance formula can be simplified, considering that both points have the same \( y \)-coordinate (3):
\[ 5 = \sqrt{(2 - k)^2 + (3 - 3)^2} \]
This simplifies to:
\[ 5 = \sqrt{(2 - k)^2 + 0} \]
Thus:
\[ 5 = \sqrt{(2 - k)^2} \]
We can eliminate the square root by squaring both sides:
\[ 5^2 = (2 - k)^2 \]
Which simplifies to:
\[ 25 = (2 - k)^2 \]
To solve for \( k \), we take the square root of both sides again:
\[ \sqrt{25} = |\sqrt{(2 - k)^2}| \]
So:
\[ 5 = |2 - k| \]
This implies two potential equations for the absolute value:
\[ 2 - k = 5 \quad \text{or} \quad 2 - k = -5 \]
Solving the first equation:
\[ 2 - k = 5 \implies -k = 5 - 2 \implies -k = 3 \implies k = -3 \]
Solving the second equation:
\[ 2 - k = -5 \implies -k = -5 - 2 \implies -k = -7 \implies k = 7 \]
The feasible and correct value for \( k \) from the given options is 7.
Thus, the correct answer is 7.
{(k-2)^2 + (3 - 3)^2 }^1/2 = 5 => k = 7
