Question

Find the distance between (-4, 6) and (3,7)

Answer 1

Answer:

Since its distance do the distance formula which is d= square root of x2-x1 squared plus y2-y1 squared. Plug in the numbers. in the square root house, it will be (3-(-4)) squared plus (7-6). Since its two negatives....it will be (3+4) squared plus 1 since 7-6=1. Then it will be the square root of 7 squared plus 1. it soon will be the square root of 50. You need to break the 50 apart to a perfect square. So find a perfect number....which have 2 multiples beside itself and 1. So 25 times 2 will be it since 25 is a perfect square. 50 squared equals the square root of 25 times 2. Now break the 25. it will be 5 times the radical of 2.
