Answer:

Explanation:
Distance can be calculated using this formula:

where (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) are the points. We are given the points (6, -9) and (1, 3). Therefore:

Substitute the values into the formula.

Solve inside the parentheses.

Solve the exponents.
- (-5)²= -5*-5 =25
- (12)²= 12 *12= 144

Add and take the square root.

The distance is 13.
