find the distance between the two points -3,5 and 7,-1
To find the distance between two points, we can use the distance formula:
Distance = √((x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2)
Let's plug in the coordinates of the two points (-3,5) and (7,-1):
Distance = √((7 - (-3))^2 + (-1 - 5)^2)
Distance = √((10)^2 + (-6)^2)
Distance = √(100 + 36)
Distance = √136
Distance ≈ 11.66
Therefore, the distance between the two points (-3,5) and (7,-1) is approximately 11.66.
