The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the number of points on the line \( x + y = 4 \) that are a unit distance away from the line \( 2x + 2y = 5 \). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Rewrite the second line in slope-intercept form**: The line \( 2x + 2y = 5 \) can be simplified to: \[ x + y = \frac{5}{2} \] 2. **Identify the lines**: We have two lines: - Line 1: \( x + y = 4 \) - Line 2: \( x + y = \frac{5}{2} \) 3. **Determine the distance between the two lines**: The distance \( d \) between two parallel lines of the form \( Ax + By = C_1 \) and \( Ax + By = C_2 \) is given by: \[ d = \frac{|C_1 - C_2|}{\sqrt{A^2 + B^2}} \] Here, \( A = 1 \), \( B = 1 \), \( C_1 = 4 \), and \( C_2 = \frac{5}{2} \). First, calculate \( |C_1 - C_2| \): \[ |4 - \frac{5}{2}| = |4 - 2.5| = |1.5| = 1.5 \] Now, calculate the distance: \[ d = \frac{1.5}{\sqrt{1^2 + 1^2}} = \frac{1.5}{\sqrt{2}} = \frac{1.5 \sqrt{2}}{2} = \frac{3\sqrt{2}}{4} \] 4. **Check if there are points that are unit distance from the second line**: We are looking for points that are 1 unit away from the line \( x + y = \frac{5}{2} \). Since the distance between the two lines is \( \frac{3\sqrt{2}}{4} \), we can see that this distance is greater than 1 unit. Therefore, there are no points on the line \( x + y = 4 \) that are exactly 1 unit away from the line \( x + y = \frac{5}{2} \). 5. **Conclusion**: Hence, the number of points on the line \( x + y = 4 \) which are unit distance apart from the line \( 2x + 2y = 5 \) is: \[ \text{Number of points} = 0 \] ### Final Answer: The number of points is \( 0 \).
