Step-by-step explanation:
Calculate the distance (d) using the distance formula
d = √ (x₂ - x₁ )² + (y₂ - y₁ )²
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (6, 5) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 3, 1)
d = [tex]\sqrt{(-3-6)^2+(1-5)^2}[/tex]
= [tex]\sqrt{(-9)^2+(-4)^2}[/tex]
= [tex]\sqrt{81+16}[/tex]
= [tex]\sqrt{97}[/tex] ≈ 9.85 ( to 2 dec. places )
