The distance formula between two points is d∧2=(x2-x1)∧2 + (y2-y1)∧2
The distance between Vista and Oceanside is
d1∧2=(-1-(-6))∧2+(6-2)∧2=(-1+6)∧2+4∧2=5∧2+16=25+16=41 => d=√41= 6.4
The distance between Oceanside and Alpena is
d2∧2=(0-(-1))∧2+(-1-6)∧2=1+(-7)∧2=1+49=50 => d2=√50=7.07
The distance between Vista and Alpena is
d3∧2=(0-(-6))∧2+(-1-2)∧2=36+9=45 => d3=√45= 6.7
Answer a) is Oceanside and Alpena
Answer b) is Vista and Oceanside
Good luck!!!
E. II or IV only because it will have different signs if point Q was in either of those quadrants
50 divided 2/3
50 x 3/2 = 150/2
= 75
