How do you solve (5,-1)
-(2,-6)
________
(?,?)
What do you want to know? The slope between those two point? the distance between them?
The distance
change in x = 3
change in y = 5
hypotenuse = sqrt (9+25) = sqrt (24)
= sqrt (4*6) = 2 sqrt 6
To solve the expression (5,-1) - (2,-6), we need to subtract the corresponding components separately.
To find the x-coordinate, we subtract the x-coordinate of the second point from the first point:
5 - 2 = 3
To find the y-coordinate, we subtract the y-coordinate of the second point from the first point:
-1 - (-6) = -1 + 6 = 5
Therefore, the solution is (3, 5).
