Answer:

Explanation:

Explanation:

Distance between two points is given by

|xy|=√(x2-x1)² +(y2-y1)²

So putting the points A(-3,4) B(1,-2) into the equation

|AB|= √(4--3)²+(-2-1)²

=√(7)²+(-3)²

= √49+9

= √58

=7.2

Answer:

D. 7.2

Explanation:

6^2 +4^2 = c^2

sqrt 36 + sqrt 16 = c^2

c^2 = sqrt 52 = 7.21110255 = 7.2
