Find the distance between the points (-1, 3) and (5, 0). (Hint: Remember to simplify the square root if you can. For example: sqrt 28 = 2 sqrt 7.)
please show steps....

Question

anonymous · Answer

3 sqrt 5

anonymous · Answer

Apply the distance formula again:

$$D=\sqrt{9+36}=\sqrt{45}=3\sqrt{5}$$

anonymous · Answer

sqrt((5-(-1))^2 + (0-3)^2)
sqrt(6^2 + 3^2)
sqrt(36+9)
sqrt(45)
3√5

anonymous · Answer

d^2 = (x1-x2)^2 + (y1-y1)^2

x1,y1 = 5,0
x2,y2 = -1,3

d^2 = (5-(-1))^2 + (0-3)^2
d^2 = 6^2 + -3^2
d^2 = 36 + 9
d = 45^0.5
d = (9*5)^0.5
d = (9^0.5)*(5^0.5)
d = 3 * (5^0.5)
