\[d=\sqrt{(x _{2}-x _{1})^{2}+(y _{2}-y _{1})^{2}}\]

^ that doesnt help me
OpenStudy (radar):
He provided you with the distance formula. All you have to do is plug in the x and y values and solve it.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
idk how to do that though
OpenStudy (radar):
You do know the x and y value at A
You dp knopw the x and y value at B
call A x1 and y1
call B x2 and y2.
now use the distance formula.

I would say the A has x=-1 and y=3
Do you agree?
OpenStudy (anonymous):

the answer is 6.32?
OpenStudy (radar):
\[\sqrt{(-1 -5)^{2}+(3-1)^{2}}\]
OpenStudy (radar):
\[\sqrt{36 + 4}=\sqrt{40}=2\sqrt{10}=6.32455532\]Looks like 6.32 will work.
