Question

Find the distance between the two points rounding to the nearest tenth (if necessary).
(6,-6) and (2,-2)

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is 5.7

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the answer you would use the distance formula

$\sqrt({x}_{2} -{x}_{1 )^{2} + (Y_{2} - Y_{1})^{2}$

The square root of X2 minus X1 plus Y2 minus Y1

You are given 2 points which means that you have your Xs and Ys needed.

We will use (6,-6) as our X and Y 1

We will use (2,-2) as our X and Y 2

Now all you do is plug in the numbers

$\sqrt{2-(6)} + \sqrt{-2-(-6)}$ Square them both

Simplify

$\sqrt{-4} ^2+\sqrt{-4}^2$

Simplify again

-4 *-4 =16

4*4= 16

16+16= 32

Your answer is$\sqrt{32}$

Or simplified 5.656

YOUR ANSWER IS: 5.7
