Question

Which equation correctly shows how to determine the distance between the points (9,-2) and (6.3) on a coordinate grid?

Answer 1

Answer:

d = $\sqrt{(6 - 9)^{2}+ (3 - (-2))^{2} }$

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance formula is d= $\sqrt{(x_{2} - x_{1})^{2} + (y_{2} - y_{1})^{2} }$.

6 is $x_{2}$, 9 is $x_{1}$, 3 is y$_{2}$, and -2 is y$_{1}$.

When you plug these into the formula, you get d = $\sqrt{(6 - 9)^{2}+ (3 - (-2))^{2} }$
