Distance

Answer 1

Explanation:

Using the distance formula:

d = √[(x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²]

where A = (x1, y1) and B = (x2, y2), we can find the distance between points A and B as follows:

d = √[(-3 - (-7))² + (-1 - (-7))²]

d = √[4² + 6²]

d = √52

d ≈ 7.2

Therefore, the distance between points A and B is approximately 7.2 units, rounded to the nearest tenth.
