A grid shows the position of a subway stop and your house. The subway stop is located at (-7, -1), and your house is located at (-3,4). What is the distance between, to the nearest unit, between your house and the subway stop?
We can use the distance formula to find the distance between the two points:
d = √[(x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2]
Plugging in the coordinates of the subway stop and your house, we get:
d = √[(-7 - (-3))^2 + (-1 - 4)^2]
d = √[(-4)^2 + (-5)^2]
d = √[16 + 25]
d = √41
Therefore, the distance between your house and the subway stop is approximately 6 units (rounded to the nearest unit).
