Question

omg

Answer 1

What is the distance from (−3, 1) to (−1, 5)? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

3.60
4.12
4.47
5.66

Answer 2

O M G distance formula!! OMG

Answer 3

how about a nice distance formula ?

Answer 4

i don't know what to do.

Answer 5

\[\large\rm d=\sqrt{(x_2 -x_1)^2 +(y_2 -y_1)^2}\]
sub in \[\large \rm (x_1 ,y_1)(x_2,y_2)\] values

Answer 6

\[\large \rm (\color{red}{x_1} ,\color{blue}{y_1})(\color{orange}{x_2},\color{pink}{y_2})\] \[\large \rm (\color{red}{-3} ,\color{blue}{1})(\color{orange}{-1},\color{pink}{5})\]
what's is x's and y's?

Answer 7

please start reading and applying the responses. We just did this! You should respond to questions and make sure everything is clear instead of re-posting the same question.

Answer 8

im so confused... i have no idea what any of this stuff means

Answer 9

The distance formula using words (compared to the formula version)


Step 1) Subtract the x values of the two points. You can subtract in any order.


Step 2) Square the result of step 1. You'll use this value later. Call this value P


Step 3) Subtract the y values of the two points. You can subtract in any order.


Step 4) Square the result of step 3. You'll use this value later. Call this value Q


Step 5) Add the results of step 2 and step 4. So compute P+Q


Step 6) Take the square root of the result of step 5.


This will give the distance between the two points. It's possible to get a distance that is not a whole number.

Answer 10

Following those steps will essentially follow the same steps of the formula @Nnesha wrote out
