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

1.3? lol
crispyrat:
1.3+1.3=2.6
Rylee88:
oh
crispyrat:
here x=2.4-1.3

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

Given that point R is at (3, 1.3) and Point T is at (3, 2.4) on a coordinate grid.
