Question

On the coordinate plan, what is the distance between the points (−3, −7) and (−9, −7)?

A) 5
B) 6
C) 12
D) 14

Answer 1

the answer is 6

Explanation:

let pt(i)= (-3,-7) and pt(i) =(-9,-7)

=(x1, y1) =(x2, y2)

form the formula

____________________

d=√(x2 - x1)² + (y2-y1)²

____________________

d=√ (-9 - -3)² + (-7 - -7)²

_________________

d=√ (-6)² + 0²

d=√36

d=6units

the distance is 6 units
