Answer:

6.4 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the distance formula:

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

$d=\sqrt{(8-3)^2+(-3-(-7))^2}$

$d=\sqrt{(5)^2+(4)^2}$

$d=\sqrt{25+16}$

$d=\sqrt{41}$

$d=6.4$

Therefore, the distance between (3,-7) and (8,-3) is 6.4 units

Hopefully, this was helpful!

Answer:

6.4

Step-by-step explanation:

the distance = √[(-3+7)²+(8-3)²]

(leg1=4 , leg2=5)

=√(4²+5²)=√(16+25)=√41 = 6.4

Triangle ABC and triangle CDE are similar right triangles. Which proportion can be used to show that the slope of AC is equal to

Marianna [84]

Answer:

(6 - 3)/(-3 - (-1))

(3 - (-3))/(-1 - 3)= 6/(-4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope AC = (y(A) - y(C))/(x(A) - x(C)) = (6 - 3)/(-3 - (-1)) = 3/(-2)

Slope CE = (y(C) - y(E))/(x(C) - x(E)) = (3 - (-3))/(-1 - 3)= 6/(-4) = 3/(- 2)
