What is the distance between the points -6 7 and 9 -2

Answer 1

Distance Formula: Given the two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2), the distance d between these points is given by the formula:

d=√(x_2​−x₁​)²+(y₂​−y_1​)²​

Using the points provided:

x1=-6

y1=7

x2=9

y2=-2

Plugging them in:

d=√(9-(-6)​)²+(-2−7_​)²​ Simplify

d=√(15​)²+(-9)²​

d=√225​+81​

d=√306
