Am I correct? Explain the distance formula. Then use it to calculate the distance between A(1,1) B(-7,7)

Astrid1:

Give me a second to type out my equation.

Astrid1:

\[d=\sqrt{(7-1)^2+(-7-1)^2}\]\[d=\sqrt{(6)^2+(-8)^2}\]\[d=\sqrt{36+64}\]\[d=\sqrt{100}\]\[d=10\]

Astrid1:

@questioncovebot EHH??

Astro:

You almost have it you have one little mistake.

Astro:

As far as I can tell at least, Look at your first step again.

Astro:

Maybe not incorrect actually but what I do is put the X values first then the Y values. You have the Y values first then the X values. I'm just being picky but

Astro:

Astrid1:

Okayyy!!

Astro:

Great job! Have a great night~
