Question

What is the distance between (-2,-3) and (1, -3) ? units 0-1) units O units O 3 units

Answer 1

The distance between the two points is 4.5 units

Here, we want to get the distance between the two points

`\begin{gathered} D\text{ = }\sqrt[]{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2} \\ (x_1,y_1)\text{ = (-2,-3)} \\ (x_2,y_2)\text{ = (0,-1)} \\ D=\text{ }\sqrt[]{(0-(-2))^2+(-1-(-3))^2} \\ D\text{ = }\sqrt[]{2^2+4^2} \\ D=\text{ }\sqrt[]{20} \\ D\text{ = 4.5 units} \end{gathered}`
