Question

Find the distance between each pair of points (6,-2) (8,-3)

Answer 1

Answer:-1/2

Step-by-step explanation: You just find the slope which is m=y2-y1

-------

x2-x1

Answer 2

`√(5)`

Explanation:

distance between two points:

`d = \sqrt{(x_(2)-x_(1))^(2)+ (y_(2)-y_(1))^(2)}`

we have:

(6, -2), (8, -3)

`x_(1) = 6`

`y_(1) =-2`

`x_(2) = 8`

`y_(2) =-3`

so we have:

`d =\sqrt{(8-6)^(2)+ (-3-(-2))^(2)}\\\\d =\sqrt{(2)^(2)+ (-1)^(2)}\\\\d = √(4+ 1)\\\\d=√(5)`
