Answer:

The points are 1 unit apart.

Explanation:

Given points are:

(3.1,-1) and (4.1,-1)

Distance formula is given by;

Distance between points =
$\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2$

Where,

(x_1,y_1) = Coordinates of first point

(x_2,y_2) = Coordinates of the second point

Putting the values,

Distance =
$\sqrt{(4.1-3.1)^2 + (-1-(-1))^2$

Distance =
$\sqrt{(1)^2 + (-1+1)^2$

Distance =
√((1)^2)

Distance = 1 unit

Hence,

The points are 1 unit apart.
