Question

Find the distance between each pair of points. Round the answer to the tenth place.

(-6, -5) and (2, 0)

Answer 1

9.4 units you can use the distance formula to determine the distance of the points

Answer 2

`~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{distance between 2 points} \\\\ (\stackrel{x_1}{-6}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-5})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{2}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{0})\qquad \qquad d = √(( x_2- x_1)^2 + ( y_2- y_1)^2) \\\\\\ d=√((~~2 - (-6)~~)^2 + (~~0 - (-5)~~)^2)\implies d=√((2 +6)^2 + (0 +5)^2) \\\\\\ d=√( (8)^2 + (5)^2) \implies d=√( 64 + 25)\implies d=√( 89 )\implies d\approx 9.4`
