Question

What is the distance between points H(7,10) and X(5, -8)? Round the answer to the nearest tenth.

Answer 1

Answer:

Let's calculate the distance between these points.

D = ((x1-x2)^2 + (y1-y2)^2)^0.5 = ((-4-(-3))^2 + (11-4)^2)^0.5 = (1 + 49)^0.5 = 50^0.5 = 7,07106...

Rounding to the nearest tenth, D = 7,0.
