Question

I need assistance :D, Instructions: Using the image, find the distance between the points given on the graph.

Answer 1

Explanation:

You have to use the distance formula to find that distance. The formula is:

`d=\sqrt{(x_(2)-x_(1))^2+(y_(2)-y_(1))^2}`

Let's call the first point x1, y1 (4, -1) and the second point x2, y2 (0, -2). Plugging into our formula then gives us this:

`d=√( (0-4)^2+(-2-(-1))^2)`

which simplifies to

`d=√((-4)^2+(-1)^2)` which is

`d=√(17)` ≈ 4.123 units
