Using the distance formula, d = √(x2 - x1)2 + (y2 - y1)2, what is the distance between point (-2, 2) and point (4, 4) rounded to the nearest tenth?


4 units


5.7 units


1 unit


6.3 units

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer to your question is 6.3 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

A (-2, 2)

B (4, 4)

Distance = ?

Formula

dAB = $\sqrt{(x2 - x1)^{2} + (y2 - y1)^{2}}$

Substitution

x1 = -2   x2 = 4    y1 = 2   y2 = 4

dAB = $\sqrt{(4 + 2)^{2} + (4 - 2)^{2}}$

Simplification

dAB = $\sqrt{6^{2} + 2^{2}}$

dAB = $\sqrt{36 + 4}$

dAB = $\sqrt{40}$

Result

dAB = 6.3 units
