Once again... I am doing something wrong. Same thing, different question! Did I miss something? I know for a fact, I did the formula right this time!! Alas, I missed SOMETHING!


\sqrt{(0 - 4 {)}^(2) + (( - 8) - ( - 5) {)}^(2) }
That is the equation I have done. The points are (0,-8) and (4,-5).

√(16 + 1600)
Is the next step I took, I feel like this is wrong!

√(1616 ) = 41.1
None of the and were contain anything NEAR 40! The options on the question are:
5
6
7
8

-8+5 = -3

-3^2 = 9

16+9 = 25

sqrt 25 = 5
