Question

Use the distance formula to find the distance, to the nearest tenth, from S(5, −4) to W(−3, 7).

Answer 1

Answer:

185

Step-by-step explanation:

distance formula is d=√((x_2-x_1)²+(y_2-y_1)²

so it would be d=$\sqrt{(-3-5)^{2} + (7-(-4))^{2} }$

where we see $(7-(-4))^{2}$ will turn into $(7+4)^{2}$

$(-3-5)^{2} =64$

$(7+4)^{2} =121$

64+121= 185

Hope this helps...sorry if i'm wrong.
