What is the distance between (2, -1) and (-1, -5) on the coordinate plane? 7 units 6 units 5 units 4 units

1 answer:

3 0

You can use the distance formula:
 $\sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2}$

Plug in the given coordinates:
 $\sqrt{(-5-2)^2 + (-1+1)^2}$

$\sqrt{(7)^2 + (0)^2}$

$\sqrt{49+0}$

$\sqrt{49}=7$

Final answer : 7units

$x^{\frac{1}{\frac{-3}{6} }}$

First, let's deal with the fraction in the denominator of the exponent. Multiply the top and bottom of the exponent by 6.

$x^{\frac{6}{-3} }$

Now that the fraction in the denominator is taken care of, we can reduce the denominator.

$x^{-2}$ . Some professors might accept this as simplest form, but others might ask you to get rid of the negative.

$x^{-2} = \frac{1}{x^{2} }$
