Answer:
≈ 7.6
Step-by-step explanation:
Calculate the distance using the distance formula
d = √ (x₂ - x₁ )² + (y₂ - y₁ )²
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 1, - 1) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (6, 2)
d = [tex]\sqrt{(6+1)^2+(2+1)^2}[/tex]
= [tex]\sqrt{7^2+3^2}[/tex]
= [tex]\sqrt{49+9}[/tex]
= [tex]\sqrt{58}[/tex] ≈ 7.6 ( to the nearest tenth )
