Find the distance between (1, 4) and (3, 9). Round the answer to the nearest hundredth.

1 answer:

6 0

To calculate the distance between these two points, we use the Pythagorean theorem since the two points can form a right triangle when plotted where the hypotenuse would be the distance between these two. We do as follows:

d = √[(x2-x1)^2 + (y2-y1)^2]
d = √[(3-1)^2 + (9-4)^2]
d = √29 = 5.39 units

The correct answer is A.

Answer:

m = 1 $\frac{1}{7}$ , y = 1 $\frac{1}{7}$ x + 10

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line is y = mx + c where m is the slope and c is the y-intercept. I will be calculating the slope using the points (7, 2) and (0, 10)

m = $\frac{rise}{run}$
