Answer: 16.16
Step-by-step explanation:
xy in this situation, will be the distance between the two points.
(-8,2) (7,-4) Find the distance between the points
To ind the distance, find the difference in the x and y values,square them and add them to find the obtained number square root.
2-(-4) = 6
-8 - 7 = -15
6^2 + (-15)^2 = d^2 where d is the distance
36 + 225 = d^2
261 = d^2
d= [tex]\sqrt{261}[/tex]
d= 16.1554 rounded to the nearest hundredth is 16.16
