Question

What is the approximate distance between the points (–5, 4) and (2, –8)?

A. 12.0 units
B. 19.0 units
C. 9.7 units
D. 13.9 units

Answer 1

option d is the correct answer

Explanation:

Distance Equation Solution:

d=radical(2−(−5))2+(−8−4)2

d=radical(7)2+(−12)2

d=radical49+144

d=radical 1–93

d=13.892444
