Answer:
sqrt( 74)
8.602
Explanation:
To find the distance between the two points we use the formula
d = sqrt( ( x2-x1)^2 +(y2-y1)^2)
= sqrt( ( 3- -2)^2 + ( -2 -5)^2)
= sqrt( (3+2)^2 + ( -7)^2)
= sqrt( 5^2 (-7)^2)
= sqrt( 25+49)
= sqrt( 74)
approximately 8.602325267
To the nearest thousandth
approximately 8.602
