Help plz I need the answer real quick???

Answer 1

Distance between mall and library is 6.32 miles.

Explanation:

Coordinates of the door to the library is at (2, 4) and door to the mall is at (8, 4).

Since, distance between two points
`(x_1,y_1)` and
`(x_2,y_2)` is given by,

Distance =
`√((x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2)`

By this formula,

Distance between (2, 4) and (8, 4) will be,

Distance =
`√((8-2)^2+(2-4)^2)`

=
`√(36+4)`

=
`√(40)`

= 6.32 miles
