Question

Distance between the points B= (3,-1) and C= (7,-8) round to the nearest 100

Answer 1

Answer:

8.06

Explanation:

For this question, you have to use the distance formula

Answer 2

Answer:

8.06

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the distance between two points, you would use the distance formula.

The distance formula is:

$\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^{2}+(y_2-y_1)^{2}}$

where (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) are two points.

Lets plug in the points (3, -1) (x₁, y₁) for  (7, -8) for (x₂, y₂):

$\sqrt{(7-3)^{2}+((-8)-(-1))^{2}}$

= $\sqrt{4^{2}+(-7)^{2}}$

= $\sqrt{16+49}$

= $\sqrt{65}$

≈ 8.06225775

Rounded to the nearest hundredth, it is 8.06.

So the distance between the points B and C rounded to the nearest hundredth is 8.06.
