<u>It doesn't matter what order the coordinates are in the distance formula as long as it stays in it's corresponding order.</u> In this case, (-7,5) could be (x1,y1) and (3,-5) could be (x2,y2) or vise versa, just as long as you don't mix up the coordinates (so no (-7,-5) or (3,5)). I'll demonstrate this below:

<u>The distance between these points, no matter the order, is √200, or approximately 14.14 units.</u>
That's 5 lengths for a three sided shape... Are you sure that is the instructions?
Answer:
(D) 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Prudence has 12 pairs of gold earrings and 12 pairs of silver earrings.
Total Number of Earrings =12+12=24
Relative Frequency of Picking a Gold Earrings =12/24= 0.5
If she randomly pulls six pairs of earrings out of the drawer to take with her on a trip
Number of Possible Outcome =Relative Frequency X Number of Trials
=0.5 X 6
=3
She would most likely take 3 gold earrings.
So you have the ratio of 9:2.
The video has 18 thumbs up votes with the ratio being thumbs up to thumbs down.
9 in relation to 18 is times 2 so it makes since to times 2 by 2.
Therefore the ratio would be 18:4 which means there would be 4 thumbs down.
