Answer:
6.7
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this problem, we need to calculate the distance between two points in the XY coordinate plane.
The formula to calculate this distance is:
d = sqrt(dx^2 + dy^2)
where dx is the difference between the X coordinate of the points, dy is the difference between the Y coordinate of the points, and d is the distance.
(sqrt is the square root of what is in the parenthesis)
The first point (April's king) has X=4 and Y=2, the second point (the opponent's king) has X=7 and Y=8.
So, we have that dx = 4-7 = -3 and dy = 2-8 = -6
Now, we calculate the distance:
d = sqrt[ (-3)^2 + (-6)^2 ] = sqrt(9+36) = sqrt(45) = 6.7082 = 6.7
