from -3 to 4 is 7 units
from -10 to 9 is 19 units
by pythagoras your distance is
\[\sqrt{7^2+19^2}\]
OpenStudy (ryan123345):
do u know the distance formula?

distance= sq root x2 - x1 + y2 - y1 sq.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
sorta correct
d=square root((x2-x1)^2+(y2-y1)^2)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
remember the brackets and the individual squares
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I got sq root 7sq + 19 sq as my answer!
OpenStudy (anonymous):
now evaluate that

are you okay?
you should leave your answer in sqrt form if it doesn't ask you to do it to the nearest tenth or so.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yeah! sorry I was busy so I got 49 and and 361 @Chelsea04
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yea, then add them together to get...
under the sqrt sign
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I got 410 then do you sq rt that?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
if you want to, but I don't think you need to

oh okay thank you! What about this one?
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
They want it to the nearest hundredth, so you have to take the square root of 410
OpenStudy (anonymous):
okay!
OpenStudy (anonymous):
where does it say that?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
oops, nevermind

sorry its so blurry!
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i got 20.25 for the other one when i sqrt 410(:
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
good, 20.25 is correct
and for the next one, use the same formula and keep in mind that the origin is the point (0,0)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
okay so I do 14sq. + 11sq. ?
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
good, add up the two squares of 14 and 11 to get ???

25! :)
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
no you square first, then add
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
14^2 + 11^2
?? + ??
???
OpenStudy (anonymous):
remember the sqrt sign at the end
OpenStudy (anonymous):
317

17.80
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
then at the end, like Chelsea04 is saying you take the square root of 317 to get your answer
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
yep you got it
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yup!!! correct!
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Thank you!!
