Answer:

7.21 (7.211103 exact)

Explanation:

In this question, we have to find the distance of the two points.

To do so, we would use this equation: d = √(x2-x1)² + (y2-y1)²

Plug in your coordinates and solve:

d = √(4+2)² + (7-3)²

d = √(6)² + (4)²

d = √36 + 16

d = √52

Now, get the square root of 52:

d = 7.211103

The distance of each coordinate would be around 7.21
