Question

what is the distance from (7,0)- (-5,5)

Answer 1

Answer:

$\frac{5}{-12}$

Step-by-step explanation:

If you use the formula $m = \frac{y2 - y1} {x2 - x1}$ with x1 being 7, y1 being 0, -5 being x2 and 5 being y2, then you can subtract. 5(y2) minus 0(y1) is 5, and -5(x2) minus 7(x1) is -12. The formula would look like this: $m = \frac{5 - 0}{-5 - 7} \frac{5}{-12}$.

(tip: you need to do rise over run, aka y over x, shown as $\frac{y}{x}$ or $\frac{rise}{run}$)
