Question

Find the distance between A(9,3) and B(-3, 3) to the nearest hundredth.

Answer 1

Find the distance between A(9,3) and B(-3, 3) to the nearest hundredth.



to solve this you must use the distance equation

`\begin{gathered} \text{Let P1(x}_(1,)y_1)\text{ and P2(x}_(2,)y_2) \\ \text{the distance between P1 and P2 is given by:} \\ d=√((y_2-y_1)^2+(x_2-x_1)^2) \\ \\ \text{all you have to do is to put this values into the formula} \\ \text{Let P1=A(9,3) P2=B(-3,3)} \\ \text{the distance between A and B is } \\ d=√((3-3)^2+(-3-9)^2) \\ d=√((0)^2+(-12)^2) \\ d=√(144) \\ d=12 \\ \end{gathered}`

so, the answer is 12 units
