Question

Im stuck

What is the distance formula? Use the distance formula to calculate the distance between points R(6, 16) and C(-1, 8).

Answer 1

please help

Answer 2

If your points are (a,b) and (c,d), the distance
= √[ (c-a)^2 + (d-b)^2 ]

now just plug in your given points and do the arithmetic
Let me know what your answer is, so I can check it

Answer 3

The distance formula is: √[(x₂ - x₁)² + (y₂ - y₁)²]

x₂ = (-1)
x₁ = 6
y₂ = 8
y₁ = 16

Substitute those values into the equation:
√[(-1 - 6)² + (8 - 16)²]

Perform the arithmetic (the subtractions inside the brackets:
√[(-7)² + (-8)²]

Square the values:
√[49 + 64]

Add them
√[113]

Calculate the square root of the value:
√[113] = 10.6301458127

√113
10.6301458127
10.63 (2 d.p)

Answer 4

did i do it right

Answer 6

Uhh make me? Nobody excluded you into the convo so stop trying to get into other people’s conversations.

Answer 7

First

1. I have every right to respond to your conversations. It’s not like this was private or anything, since you posted it publicly, so of course anyone could respond or even view it. If you have a problem, tell it to the manager.

2. Nobody didn’t HAVE to “exclude” me into the conversation. And if your trying to make it seem like your tryna be smart by using words like “exclude” or any other smart word, make sure you look up the definition of it first. It’s include.

3. Your overreacting over a person posting a rickrolling video. Please- :/
