Question

Can someone please help

Answer 1

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to use the distance formula, which says that for two points $(x_1,y_1)$ and $(x_2,y_2)$, the distance between them is:

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

Here, the two points are (-2.5, 4.5) and (4.75, 4.5), so:

d = $\sqrt{(4.75-(-2.5))^2+(4.5-4.5)^2}=\sqrt{(7.25)^2+(0)^2}=7.25$ = 7 1/4

The answer is C.

Answer 2

Answer:

7¼ units

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the y-coordinate is the same, the two points lie on the same horizontal line

No vertical distance

Only horizontal distance of:

4¾ - (-2½)

4.75 + 2.5

7.25 units

Or

7¼ units
