Find the distance between (1, -2) and (-4, 3). A. 5.83 B. 3.16 C. 7.07 D. 5 im guessing 5 ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2-(y_2-y_1)^2}\] \[(x_2,y_2),(x_1,y_1)\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

are the two points given to you.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I got one of those answers doing that....and it wasn't 5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Just plug it in and see what you get

OpenStudy (anonymous):

If you still have trouble let me know

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well, i somehow ended up with 0. so i think i pluging it in wrong

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if you still dont get it, i know the answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

woow! thanks gigglesquid!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OMG I made a mistake

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you subtracted 25-25 inside the square root right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You were suppose to add them instead

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah...oo

OpenStudy (anonymous):

5.0990 is what it is.... its the square root of 26

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\sqrt{(x_2−x_1)^2+(y_2−y_1)^2}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@GiggleSquid that's wrong too

OpenStudy (anonymous):

nop, its right.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah, the site told me its 7.07 but im not sure if thats right eighter
