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?

Given Information:

Point 1 =  (8, −3)

Point 2 =  (4, −7)

Required Information:

Distance between points = d = ?

Distance between points = d = √32 = 5.657

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given two points,

(x₁, y₁) = (8, −3)

(x₂, y₂) = (4, −7)

We are asked to find the distance between these two points.

The distance is given by

Substitute the given coordinates into above equation

Therefore, the distance between (8, −3) and (4, −7) is 5.657 units.

no

step-by-step explanation:

2-7=-5

7-2=5

when you combing like terms for ech expression, 5 and -5. these numbers are not equal to each other.
