Question

Agrid shows the positions of a subway stop and your house. The
subway stop is located at (-7,8) and your house is located at (6,4).
What is the distance, to the nearest unit, between your house and
the subway stop?

Answer 1

Answer: about 13u

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance can be calculated as $\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}$

$\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}\\\\\sqrt{(6-(-7))^2+(4-8)^2}\\\\\\\sqrt{(13)^2+(-4)^2}\\\\\\\sqrt{185}\\\\13$
