Find the distance between (-2,7) and (3, -3). Round to the nearest tenth. Geometry please help

yan [13]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for distance when given vertices is

√(x2 - x1)² + (y2- y1)²

Where we have points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2)

So, (-2,7) and (3, -3)

Distance = √(3 -(-2))² + (-3 -7)²

= √5² + (-10)²

= √25 + 100

= √125

= 15

Therefore, the distance between (-2,7) and (3, -3) is 15
