On a coordinate grid, point R is at (−6, 2) and point S is at (8, 2). The distance (in units) between points R and S is ______. (Input only whole numbers, such as 2.)

Respuesta :

You can use the distance formula:
d=sqroot(x2-x1)squared + (y2-y1)squared.
Plug in values: d=sqroot(8-(-6))squared + (2-2)squared
Simplify: d=sqroot(196)+0
Simplify:d=sqroot(196
Square Root: d=14 units

You can use the distance formula:

d=sqroot(x2-x1)squared + (y2-y1)squared.

Plug in values: d=sqroot(8-(-6))squared + (2-2)squared

Simplify: d=sqroot(196)+0

Simplify:d=sqroot(196

Square Root: d=14 units
