The distance between A (-4, 2) and B(4, 2) is.
Did you try graphing the points?
There is a distance formula to find the distance between any two points on the coordinate plane, but if the points are on a horizontal line or on a vertical line, you don't need to use the formula, and you can still find the distance easily.
yeah i tried it and i got 64 then i tried breaking it down and i dont know how to get the answer. i get to choose from 4, 6 , and 8
Just graph it as I suggested above.
\[\huge~\rm~\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}\] did you use this?
yes
|dw:1437619162121:dw|
even if i graph it i dont know what im doing
See? The points are on a horizontal line, so the distance is simply the distance along the horizontal line the points lie in.
list your: x1=? x2=? y1=? y2=?
|dw:1437619236726:dw|
