To find the distance between the points \( (9, 2) \) and \( (3, 6) \), we can use the distance formula:
\[ d = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2} \]
Substituting in the coordinates of the points:
- \( (x_1, y_1) = (9, 2) \)
- \( (x_2, y_2) = (3, 6) \)
We get:
\[ d = \sqrt{(3 - 9)^2 + (6 - 2)^2} \] \[ = \sqrt{(-6)^2 + (4)^2} \] \[ = \sqrt{36 + 16} \] \[ = \sqrt{52} \] \[ \approx 7.2111 \]
Rounding to the nearest tenth, we obtain:
\[ \approx 7.2 \text{ units} \]
Thus, the distance between the two points is 7.2 units.
