Question

Find the distance between M(-1,-10) and P(-12,-3) * Round to the nearest tenth.

Answer 1

Answer:

13.0 units

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the distance between two points, we use the formula

d = sqrt( (y2-y1)^2+ (x2-x1)^2)

   sqrt((-3--10)^2 + (-12--1)^2)

   sqrt( (-3+10)^2 + (-12+1)^2)

   sqrt( (7^2  + (-11)^2)

  sqrt( 49+121)

  sqrt( 170)

13.038

Rounding to the nearest tenth

13.0
