Question

What is the distance between (-5,5) and (3,-3)

Answer 1

the distance between (-5,5) and (3,-3) is

Explanation:

the distance formula is d=
`\sqrt{(x^2-x^1 )^2+(y^2-y^1)^2\\`

step on plug in:

x1=-1

x2=3

y1=5

y2=-3

`\sqrt{(-5-3 )^2+(5-(-3)^2\\`

step 2 solve it:

=
`\sqrt{(-8 )^2+(8)^2\\`

= -8x-8= +64 8x8=16

=
`\sqrt{64+64\\`=
`\sqrt{128`

when reduced it's=
`8√(2)` or 11.31 <--- thats the answer
