Find the distance between points M(6,16) and Z (-1, 14) to the nearest tenth.

Answer 1

The points are M(6, 16) and z(- 1, 14)

Distance formula : d = .

Substitute the values of (x₁, y₁) = (6, 16) and (x₂, y₂) = (- 1, 14) in the distance formula.

d = √((14-16)²+(-1-6)²)

   = √((-2)²+(-7)²)

   = √(4+49)

    =√53

    = 7.28

Distance between given two points is 7.28 units.
