Question

In the coordinate plane, what is the length of the line segment that connects points at (0, −1) and (−7, −2) ?

Round to the nearest hundredth.

Answer 1

Distance = √(y2-y1)² + (x2-x1)²
d = √(-1+2)² + (0+7)²
d = √1² + 7²
d = √1+49
d = √50

In short, Your Answer would be √50 or 7.07 units

Hope this helps!
