Question

Use the Distance Formula to find the distance between (−3, 7) and (8, −6) , rounded to the nearest hundredth.

Answer 1

Answer:

d= 17.03

Step-by-step explanation:

$d=\sqrt{ (x_{2}-x_{1})+(y_{2}-y_{1})^{2}}\\\\d=\sqrt{(8--3)+(-6-7)^{2}}\\\\d=\sqrt{(11)+(-13)^{2}} \\\\d=\sqrt{121+169}\\\\d= \sqrt{290} \\\\d=17.03$
