A grid shows the postitions of a subway stop and y our house. The subway stop is located at (-7, 5) and your house is located at (-10,10). What is the distance, to the nearest unit, between your house and the subway stop?(1 point)

1 answer

To find the distance between two points, we can use the distance formula:

√((x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2)

In this case, the coordinates of the subway stop are (-7, 5) and the coordinates of your house are (-10, 10).

Plugging in the values:

√((-7 - (-10))^2 + (5 - 10)^2)
√((3)^2 + (-5)^2)
√(9 + 25)
√34

To the nearest unit, the distance between your house and the subway stop is approximately 6 units.
