Divide this by the original price

41.25/75

Using the Distance Formula and the Pythagorean Theorem, find the distance, to the nearest tenth, from F (5,5) to G (−3,−1).

kvasek [131]

Answer:

<h2>The answer is 10 units</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between two points can be found by using the formula

$d = \sqrt{ ({x1 - x2})^{2} + ({y1 - y2})^{2} } \\$

where

(x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2) are the points

From the question the points are

F (5,5) , G (−3,−1)

The distance between them is

$|FG| = \sqrt{( {5 + 3})^{2} + ({5 + 1})^{2} } \\ = \sqrt{ {8}^{2} + {6}^{2} } \\ = \sqrt{64 + 36} \\ = \sqrt{100} \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \\ = 10 \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \:$

We have the final answer as

<h3>10 units</h3>
