Question

Find the distance between the two points rounding to the nearest tenth (if

necessary).
(8,-5) and (1,1)


Can someone please help me

Answer 1

`d=9.2`

Explanation:

Distance Formula:
`d=√((x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2)`

Simply plug in your 2 coordinates into the distance formula to find distance d:

`d=√((1-8)^2+(1-(-5))^2)`

`d=√((-7)^2+(1+5)^2)`

`d=√(49+(6)^2)`

`d=√(49+36)`

`d=√(85)`

`d=9.21954`

`d=9.2`
