Question

PLEASE ANSWER ASPA Using the distance formula, what is the distance of C (-4, -2) and D (3, 5)?

Answer 1

Answer:

Approximately 9.90 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance formula is:

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

Let (-4,-2) be x1 and y1, and (3,5) be x2 and y2.

Plug in the numbers:

$d=\sqrt{(3-(-4))^2+(5-(-2))^2}$

$d=\sqrt{7^2+7^2}$

$d=\sqrt{2(7)^2}$

$d=7\sqrt{2}$
