Answer: = 8.944
Explanation: Step-by-step explanation:
The distance between two points
d = √(x2 - x1)^2 + ( y2 - y1)^2
d - distance
( x1 , x2) -first point
( y1 , y2) -second point
( -5 , -8) ( -1 , -16)
x1 = -5
y1 = -8
x2 = -1
y2 = -16
d = √( -1 - (-5)^2 + ( -16 - (-8)^2
= √( -1 + 5)^2 + ( -16 + 8)^2
= √ 4^2 + (-8)^2
= √ 16 + 64
= √ 80
= 8.944
