Answer:
[tex]d=9.2[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Distance Formula: [tex]d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}[/tex]
Simply plug in your 2 coordinates into the distance formula to find distance d:
[tex]d=\sqrt{(1-8)^2+(1-(-5))^2}[/tex]
[tex]d=\sqrt{(-7)^2+(1+5)^2}[/tex]
[tex]d=\sqrt{49+(6)^2}[/tex]
[tex]d=\sqrt{49+36}[/tex]
[tex]d=\sqrt{85}[/tex]
[tex]d=9.21954[/tex]
[tex]d=9.2[/tex]
