Question

Can someone solve this please?

Answer 1

3.16 units

Explanation:

The distance between the points P1 (6, 8) and P2 (7, 5)) can be solved by using the distance formula given as
`d = √((x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2)`.

Let,

`(6, 8) = (x_1, y_1)`

`(7, 5) = (x_2, y_2)`

Plug these values into the distance formula.

Thus:

`d = √((7 - 6)^2 + (5 - 8)^2)`

`d = √((1)^2 + (-3)^2)`

`d = √(1 + 9)`

`d = √(10) =`

d = 3.16 (nearest tenth)

Distance between the two points in the graph is approximately 3.16 units
