Question

Find the distance between A(0, 1) and B(–4, 6) to the nearest tenth.

Answer 1

you have to use distance formula witch is square root of y1,y2 and x1,x2 squared. after you use the formula you should get 6.4 as your answer
d=6.4

Answer 2

Distance of two points can be calculaetd using formula:

`d= \sqrt{ ( x_(2)- x_(1) )^(2)+ ( y_(2)- y_(1) )^(2) }`
Here x1 and y1 are coordinates of point A and x2 and y2 are coordinates of point B.

Now we insert numbers into formula:

`d= \sqrt{ (-4- 0)^(2)+( 6- 1 )^(2) } = √(16+25) = √(41) =6.4`
