Question

Find the distance between the points 3,-6 and -5,-6

Answer 1

8

Explanation:

horizontal line from 3 to -5

Answer 2

`\boxed{\sf{8}}`

Explanation:

Use the distance formula.

Distance formula:

`\rightarrow \sf{√(\left(x_2-x_1\right)^2+\left(y_2-y_1\right)^2)}`

y2=(-6)

y1=(-6)

x2=(-5)

x1=3

`\sf{√(\left(-5-3\right)^2+\left(-6-\left(-6\right)\right)^2)}`

Then, you solve.

`\sf{\left(-5-3\right)^2+\left(-6-\left(-6\right)\right)^2=\boxed{\sf{8}}`

Therefore, the final answer is 8.
