Answer 1

10.77

Explanation:

Answer 2

Distance = 10.77 to nearest hundredth

Explanation:

Using

d = √ (x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2

With the two points given

( -6,-1)(4,3)

x_1 = -6

y_1 = -1

x_2 = 4

y_2 = 3

Insert the values

=√(4 -(-6)^2 + (3 - (-1)^2

=√(4 + 6)^2 + (3 +1)^2

=√ 10^2 + 4^2

=√100 + 16

=√ 116

= 10.77033

= 10.77 to nearest hundredth
