Hey there! :)

Find the distance between (-5, 8) (4, 6)

The formula to find the distance is : d = $\sqrt{(x2-x1)^2+(y2-y1)^2$

Where : -5 = x1 , 4 = x2 , 8 = y1 , 6 = y2

Now, simply plug everything into our equation.

$d = \sqrt{(4 + 5)^2 + (6 - 8)^2}$

Let's simplify this now.

$d = \sqrt{9^2 - 2^2}$

Simplify again.

$d = \sqrt{81 + 4} = \sqrt{85}$

Therefore, our distance is $\sqrt{85}$ OR 9.22

Hope this helped! :)

$\sqrt{85}$ (about 9.2195) units

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the distance between two points is: $\sqrt{(x_1 - x_2)^2 + (y_1 - y_2)^2}$

Substitute the values. $\sqrt{(-5 - 4)^2 + (8 - 6)^2}$

Subtract. $\sqrt{(-9)^2 + 2^2}$

Solve the exponents. $\sqrt{81 + 4}$

Add. $\sqrt{85}$

This is as simple as the solution can get without estimating, but we can use a calculator to estimate that the distance is about 9.2195 units.
