To set up the distance formula between two points \( L(x_1, y_1) \) and \( M(x_2, y_2) \), the correct formula is:
\[
d = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2}
\]
Given the points \( L(4, 2) \) and \( M(7, 6) \):
- \( x_1 = 4 \), \( y_1 = 2 \)
- \( x_2 = 7 \), \( y_2 = 6 \)
Substituting these values into the distance formula gives:
\[
d = \sqrt{(7 - 4)^2 + (6 - 2)^2}
\]
This simplifies to:
\[
d = \sqrt{(3)^2 + (4)^2} = \sqrt{9 + 16} = \sqrt{25} = 5
\]
Now, looking at the responses provided, the correct setup should be:
\[
d = \sqrt{(4 - 7)^2 + (2 - 6)^2}
\]
So the correct response from your options is:
**d = square root of (4 minus 7) squared plus (2 minus 6) squared.**
\[
d = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2}
\]
