In order to find the distance to the galaxies, I need to use Hubble's Law which states:  \begin{equation}  V = H_o \cdot d  \end{equation}  where V is the velocity of the galaxy moving away from Earth (the center value at the line of nodes) and $H_o$ is Hubble's Constant which is $72 \textrm{ km/s/Mpc}$ where Mpc is a mega-parsec, a unit of distance.   Using the velocity from the center point of the line of nodes, the velocity of the galaxy moving away from Earth, is $4994 \textrm{ km/s}$.
