A marina is in the shape of a coordinate grid. Boat A is docked at (3, −1) and Boat B is docked at (−4, −1). The boats are units apart.

Answer:

The distance between boat A and boat B will be 7.2 units apart.

What is the distance between two points?

It is the measure of distance between the two points and is known as length. The length is measured in meters generally. Let one point be (x, y) and another point be (h, k).

Then the distance between the points will be

D² = (x - h)² + (y - k)²

A marina is looking like a direction framework. Boat An is moored at (3.1, −1) and Boat B is moored at (−4.1, −1).

Then the distance between the points (3.1, −1) and (−4.1, −1) will be given as,

D² = (-1 + 1)² + (3.1 + 4.1)²

D² = (7.2)²

D = 7.2 units

The distance between boat A and boat B will be 7.2 units apart.
