What is the approximate distance between points A and B? A coordinate grid is shown from negative 5 to 0 to 5 on both axes at increments of 1. The ordered pair negative 4, 5 is labeled as A, and the ordered pair 3, negative 2 is labeled as B. 3.74 7.95 8.56 9.90

Answer:

The correct option is 4. The distance between points A and B is 9.90 units.

Explanation:

It is given that the coordinates of points are A(-4,5) and B(3,-2).

Distance formula:


d=√((x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2)

The given points are A(-4,5) and B(3,-2),


AB=√((3-(-4))^2+(-2-5)^2)


AB=√((7)^2+(-7)^2)


AB=√(2(7)^2)


AB=7√(2)


AB=9.8995


AB\approx 9.90

Therefore the distance between points A and B is 9.90 units. Option 4 is correct.
