Question

Find the distance between the two points rounding to the nearest tenth (if necessary). (-7, -5)(-3, 4)

Answer 1

Answer:

9.8 ( to the nearest tenth )

Step-by-step explanation:

calculate the distance using the distance formula

d = √( x₂ - x₁ )² + ( y₂ - y₁ )²

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 7, - 5) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 3, 4)

d = $\sqrt{(-3+7)^2+(4+5)^2}$ = $\sqrt{16+81}$ = $\sqrt{97}$ = 9.8
