Use the formula of a distance between two points:

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

(-8,\ -6),\ (4,\ 10)\\\\d=\sqrt{(4-(-8))^2+(10-(-6))^2}=\sqrt{12^2+16^2}\\\\=\sqrt{144+256}=\sqrt{400}=\boxed{20}\\\\(5,\ 14),\ (-3,\ -9)\\\\d=\sqrt{(-3-5)^2+(-9-14)^2}=\sqrt{(-8)^2+(-23)^2}\\\\=\sqrt{64+529}=\boxed{\sqrt{593}\approx24.35}

What is slope between the points (-5,7) and (4,-8)?
WINSTONCH [101]
The slope can sometimes be called the gradient, and the equation for the gradient is (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1). So therefore, you'd do: (-8 - 7)/(4 - -5) which is (-15)/9) which is -1 2/3 or -1.6 (recurring), which is your answer. I hope this helps! Let me know if I've confused you :)
