Although the distance formula could be used this is on a straight line and not an angle so we can determine the length by determining the difference between both the x values in each point. And yes your answer of C. is correct

OpenStudy (jojo12g):

thanx can u help with anoter

OpenStudy (sweetburger):

sure

OpenStudy (jojo12g):

OpenStudy (jojo12g):

k

OpenStudy (sweetburger):

distance formula*

OpenStudy (jojo12g):

i think c
