Answer:

Approximately 12.04 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

The find the distance between any two points, we can use the distance formula, which is:

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

We have the points (2,7) and (-6,-2). Let's let (2,7) be (x₁, y₁) and let's let (-6, -2) be (x₂, y₂). Substitute:

d=\sqrt{(-6-2)^2+(-2-7)^2

Subtract:

d=\sqrt{(-8)^2+(-9)^2

Square:

d=\sqrt{64+81}

Add:

d=\sqrt{145}

Approximate

d=\sqrt{145}\approx12.04

So, the distance between (2,7) and (-6,-2) is approximately 12.04 units.

And we're done!

Watch closely.    I'll try to go slow.
Stop me if I go too fast, or if I do anything that you don't understand.

Ready ?


You said                               d      =  r t

Divide each side by ' t ' :    d / t  =  r

astraxan [27]

Solution:

we are given that

Don walked 3 3/5 miles on Friday

It can be re-written as

3\frac{3}{5}miles=\frac{18}{5}= 3.6miles

3 5/8 miles on sunday.

It can be re-written as

3\frac{5}{8}miles=\frac{29}{8}= 3.625miles

an d He walk 3.7 miles on satarday.

The distances from least to greatest is  3.6, 3.625, 3.7

or

The distances from least to greatest is  3\frac{3}{5}miles, 3\frac{5}{8}miles, 3.7 miles.
