Find the distance between the points (–9, 0) and (2, 5).

sqrt( 146)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the distance between two points, we use the formula

d = sqrt( ( y2-y1)^2 + (x2-x1)^2)

Where (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) are the two points.

(–9, 0) and (2, 5).

Substituting into the equation

d = sqrt( (5-0)^2 + (2- -9)^2)

d = sqrt( ( 5^2 + (2+9)^2)

      sqrt( ( 5^2 + (11)^2)

   = sqrt( 25+121)

  = sqrt( 146)

The distance between the two points is sqrt(74)
