Point R is at (3, 1.3) and Point T is at (3, 2.4) on a coordinate grid. The distance between the two points is ____. (Input numbers and decimal point only, such as 8.2.)

crispyrat:

so for this problem they are on the same line which means it is a straight line the oly thing that changes is the postion so how muchould would you have to mobe 1.3 to get to 2.4?

Rylee88:

2?

crispyrat:

nope 1.3+2=3.3

Rylee88:

oh

crispyrat:

so 1.3+x=2.4 then what is x

Rylee88:

1.3? lol

crispyrat:

1.3+1.3=2.6

Rylee88:

oh

crispyrat:

here x=2.4-1.3

Rylee88:

oh

crispyrat:

can u solve that?

Rylee88:

1.1

crispyrat:

yes! Good job!

Rylee88:

Thats the Answer?

crispyrat:

Yep

shybrenawalker:

Distance formula : d = sqrt ((x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2) (3,1.3)....x1 = 3 and y1 = 1.3 (3,2.4)...x2 = 3 and y2 = 2.4 now we sub d = sqrt ((3 - 3)^2 + (2.4 - 1.3)^2) d = sqrt ((0^2) + (1.1^2)) d = sqrt (0 + 1.21) d = sqrt 1.21 d = 1.1 <===

Rylee88:

Ok Thank you
