Answer:
≈ 33.2 units
Step-by-step explanation:
Calculate the distance d using the distance formula
d = [tex]\sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^2+(y_{2}-y_{1})^2 }[/tex]
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (9, - 4) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 22, 8)
d = [tex]\sqrt{(-22-9)^2+(8+4)^2}[/tex]
= [tex]\sqrt{(-31)^2+12^2}[/tex]
= [tex]\sqrt{961+144}[/tex]
= [tex]\sqrt{1105}[/tex] ≈ 33.2 ( to 1 dec. place )
