Answer:

4.2 units

Explanation:

Assuming 1 grid box = 1 units, the coordinates of the two points are (-1, -1) and (2, 2).

Apply distance formula
d = √((x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2) to find the distance between (-1, -1) and (2, 2).

Let,


(-1, -1) = (x_1, y_1)


(2, 2) = (x_2, y_2)

Plug in the values


d = √((2 - (-1))^2 + (2 - (-1))^2)


d = √((3)^2 + (3)^2)


d = √(9 + 9)


d = √(18)


d = 4.2 (to the nearest tenth)
