Question

Exit Ticket

Answer 1

Answer:

116 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$(x_1,y_1) = (-41,3)$ --- Camp 1

$(x_2,y_2) = (75,3)$ --- Camp 2

Required

The distance between both camps

This is calculated using:

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

$d^2 = \sqrt{(-41-75)^2 + (3-3)^2}$

$d^2 = \sqrt{(-116)^2 + (0)^2}$

$d^2 = \sqrt{116^2}$

$d = 116$

The distance is 116 miles
