Hello!

To find the distance between the points (1, 25) and (4, 21), you need to use the distance formula.

The distance formula is:
d =\sqrt{(x_(2)-x_(1))^(2)+(y_(2)-y_(1))^(2)}. With the distance formula, you have to assign the ordered pairs before substituting them into the formula, which is also used to to find the slope of functions.


d =\sqrt{(21-25)^(2)+(4-1)^(2)}


d =\sqrt{(-4)^(2)+(3)^(2)}


d=√(25)


d=5

Therefore, the distance between the two points is 5 units.
