Answer:


\sqrt{(4-8)^(2)+(-3+7)^(2)}


4√(2)

Explanation:

The formula for finding the distance between two lines is:


d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^(2)+(y_2-y_1)^(2)}

where d is the distance between the points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂).

By using the distance formula, we can find that the distance between (8, -7) and (4, -3) is:


d=\sqrt{(4-8)^(2)+(-3+7)^(2)}

So we know that


\sqrt{(4-8)^(2)+(-3+7)^(2)}

is one answers to the question. To find the other answer, if there is one, we will have to evaluate the distance between the two points.


d=\sqrt{(4-8)^(2)+(-3+7)^(2)}=\sqrt{(-4)^(2)+4^(2)}=√(16+16)=√(32)=4√(2)

So now we know that


4√(2)

is another one of the answers. Since none of the other answer are equal to each other, those are the only two answers.


\sqrt{(4-8)^(2)+(-3+7)^(2)}


4√(2)

I hope you find this helpful.

Answer:

B and C

Explanation:

Calculate the distance d using the distance formula

d = √ (x₂ - x₁ )² + (y₂ - y₁ )²

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (8, - 7) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (4, - 3)

d =
√((4-8)^2+(-3+7)^2) → B

=
√((-4)^2+4^2)

=
√(16+16)

=
√(32)

=
√(16(2))

=
√(16) ×
√(2)

= 4
√(2) → C
