find the value of x and y if the distance of the point (x, y) from (-2,0) and (2,0) are both 14 units.

 and   are both 14 units from points (-2, 0) and (2, 0).

Step-by-step explanation:

distance formula

We want the distance, d, from points (-2, 0) and (2, 0) to be 14.

Point (-2, 0):

Point (2, 0):

We have a system of equations:

Since the right sides of both equations are equal, we set the left sides equal.

Square both sides:

Square the binomials and combine like terms.

Now we substitute x = 0 in the first equation of the system of equations:

Square both sides.

The points are:

 and  

the central idea is that:

individuals should refuse to cooperate with institutions they believe unjust.

thoreau felt  that governments were more often agents of corruption than justice, even democracies, and that just because the majority feels a certain way does not make it just or correct in absolute terms. he uses the fact that slavery exists in our democracy to support this idea.

he goes on to say that, as a result, people should live true to their own internal laws regarding right and wrong, as a product of reflection and a moral life, rather than following every law that society imposes.
