Question

2. What is the distance between P(–4, 3) and Q(6, 1)? Round to the nearest tenth. (2 points) PLEASE EXPLAIN

Answer 1

\(d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}\)

Answer 2

So D+ (6 -(-4) )^2 + (1-3)^2 ?

Answer 3

*D=

Answer 4

Yep, and square root of it too.
\(d=\sqrt{(6-(-4))^2+(1-3)^2}=~\sqrt{10^2+(-2)^2}=~?\)

Answer 5

@wealdooo That is the slope formula....... and they are subscripts not exponents in that particular formula.

Answer 6

Soooo i got 10.19803

Answer 7

Correct, but incorrect rounding. What is it to the nearest tenth?

Answer 8

10.2??

Answer 9

Correctomundo!

Answer 10

yay thank you so much!

Answer 11

No problem!
