There is 12 in your choices

OpenStudy (isaidavila):

?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I don't have any choices lol

OpenStudy (isaidavila):

Oh ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeah

OpenStudy (isaidavila):

Use the distance fórmula D=√{(x2-x1)^2+(y2-y1)^2}

OpenStudy (isaidavila):

First for RS and then ST

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is that suppose to be a fraction or something ?

OpenStudy (isaidavila):

(x2-x1) squared

OpenStudy (isaidavila):

X1= initial x coordinate X2=final x coordinate

OpenStudy (anonymous):

e.e yikes i honesty have no idea what to do

OpenStudy (isaidavila):

Initial coordinates are R(-1;4)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

And final

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is

OpenStudy (anonymous):

5, 4?

OpenStudy (isaidavila):

Final are S(5;4) that is for the first part

OpenStudy (isaidavila):

Yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and then? what do i do

OpenStudy (isaidavila):

Now find (x2-x1)^2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (isaidavila):

Niw find (y2-y1) ^2

OpenStudy (isaidavila):

Sum the results

OpenStudy (isaidavila):

That is the first part RS Just do the same for the other part ST

OpenStudy (anonymous):

still confused im sorrryy

OpenStudy (isaidavila):

Remember the formula D=√(x2-x1) ^2 + (y2-y1) ^2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is the answer 12 e.e

OpenStudy (isaidavila):

Yes
