b) 19.31 units
c) 18.25 units
d) 10.31 units
e) 8.06 units

Answer 1

I’m pretty sure it’s B, 19.31 units. I hope this helps :)

Answer 2

9514 1404 393

Answer:

b) 19.31 units

Explanation:

The distance formula is useful for this.

d = √((x2 -x1)² +(y2-y1)²)

d = √((11 -(-7))² +(-5-2)²) = √(18² +(-7)²) = √373

d ≈ 19.31 . . . units
