Question

The given numbers are coordinates of points A, B, and C, respectively, on a coordinate line. 9, 8, -5

Find the distance d (A, B)

Answer 1

8.5 distance from a,b

Answer 2

distance d(A,B)=1

Explanation:

we know that if we have given two point
`A(x_(1), y_(1))` and
`and`x_{2},y_{2})[/tex] we have to find the distance between two points d(A, B)

then we can use following formula

d(A,B) =[tex]\sqrt((x_{2}-x_{1})^2+(y_{2}-y_{1})^2)\\=\sqrt((9-8)^2\\=\sqrt(1)\\=1
