Find the distance between the points: (-3, -4) and (5, 5). If necessary, round your answer to the nearest tenth. A.14.4 b.19 c.12 d.11.8

Respuesta :

Answer:

The answer is option C

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between two points can be found by using the formula

[tex]d = \sqrt{( {x1 - x2})^{2} + ({y1 - y2})^{2} } \\ [/tex]

where

(x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2) are the points

From the question the points are

(-3, -4) and (5, 5)

The distance between them is

[tex]d = \sqrt{( { - 3 - 5})^{2} + ({ - 4 - 5})^{2} } \\ = \sqrt{ ({ - 8})^{2} + ( { - 9})^{2} } \\ = \sqrt{64 + 81} \\ = \sqrt{145} \\ = 12.04159 [/tex]

We have the final answer as

12 units to the nearest tenth

Hope this helps you
