What is the distance between (8, -3)(8,−3)left parenthesis, 8, comma, minus, 3, right parenthesis and (4, -7)(4,−7)left parenthesis, 4, comma, minus, 7, right parenthesis? Choose 1

5.6568 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following points :

(8, - 3) and (4, - 7).

Find the distance between them.

(8, - 3) : x1 = 8, y1 = - 3

(4, - 7): x2 = 4, y2 = - 7

Distance (d) = √[(x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²]

d = √[(4 - 8)² + (-7 - (-3))²]

d = √[(-4)² + (-7 +3)²]

d = √[16 + (-4)²]

d = √16 + 16

d = √32

d = 5.6568

d = 5.66 units
