Question

What is the distance between (2,6) and (7,6)

Answer 1

Explanation:

`Distance(d)=√((x2-x1)^2+(y2-y1)^2)`

Now, we add in our coordinates to their respectful places and simplify the radical.

`d=√((7-2)^2+(6-6)^2)\\ d=√((5)^2+(0)^2) \\d=√(25+0)\\ d=√(25)\\ d=5`

So the distance from (2,6) and (7,6) is 5 units.

Answer 2

5

Explanation:

Finding the distance, midpoint, slope, equation and the x y-intercepts of a line passing between the two points p1 (7,6) and p2 (2,6)

The distance (d) between two points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) is given by the formula

d= √((X2-X1)2+(Y2-Y1)2)

d = √(2-7)2+(6-6)2

d = √((-5)2+(0)2)

d= √(25+0)

d = √25

The distance between the points is 5
