Answer:
distance is 14.04
Step-by-step explanation:
the distance between 2 points is the Hypotenuse of the right angled triangle of the x and y coordinate differences.
we use Pythagoras
c² = a² + b²
c = the Hypotenuse (the side of the triangle opposite to the 90 degree angle).
the x difference
-8 - 6 = -14
the y difference
-2 - -1 = -1
c² = -14² + -1² = 196 + 1 = 197
c = sqrt(197) = 14.04

Answer:
4 (3 x + 2)
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
y = 1/2x + 1
Step-by-step explanation:
m = 1/2
Slope-intercept:
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - 3 = 1/2(x - 4)
y - 3 = 1/2x - 2
y = 1/2x + 1
