Answer:
[tex]d = 9.2[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Points: (-2,-2) and (0,7)
Required
Determine the distance between them.
Distance is calculated as thus:
[tex]d = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2}[/tex]
Where:
[tex](x_1,y_1) = (-2,-2)[/tex]
[tex](x_2,y_2) = (0,7)[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]d = \sqrt{(0 - (-2))^2 + (7 - (-2))^2}[/tex]
[tex]d = \sqrt{(0 +2)^2 + (7 +2)^2}[/tex]
[tex]d = \sqrt{2^2 + 9^2}[/tex]
[tex]d = \sqrt{4 + 81}[/tex]
[tex]d = \sqrt{85}[/tex]
[tex]d = 9.2[/tex] --- Approximated
