Answer:
The distance would be 6.7 or 3✓5
Step-by-step explanation:
Im sure there's a faster way to find this, but I'm in 8th grade sooo yeah.
First things first we can use the equation
d=✓(X2-X1)*2+(Y2-Y1)*2
X2= 8
X1= 5
Y2= 13
Y1= 7
From here, you plug in the values and do as followed. You subtract the values to get the answer. For example 8-5 would get us (3)*2.
From here you square the 3 to get 9. You also do the same to the right side of the equation.
Now you have d=✓(3)*2 + (6)*2
From here you square it and you get d=✓9+36
Now we have: d✓45
Now we square the 45 to get 6.7082..., but we round the answer to get 6.7!
Hope this helps! If you have any questions please feel free to ask, as I understand the struggle of math! :)
