Question

HELP 20 POINTS!!! What is the distance between the points (−5, 10) and (−5, 2) ?

A. 2 units.
B. 8 units.
C. 10 units.
D. 12 units.

Answer 1

8 Units (B)

Explanation:

The difference of the Y coordinates (since the X coordinates are the same), which are 10 and 2, is 8.

You can also use the distance formula:

`d=√((x2-x1)^2+(y2-y1)^2)`

Answer 2

B. 8 units

Explanation:

Use the distance formula to determine the distance between two points.
