Calculate the distance between the points C=(-7, 7) and M=(-2, 3) in the coordinate plane. Give an exact answer (not a decimal approximation).
Answer ?

d = Sqrt 41 = 6.4

Step-by-step explanation:

d = sqrt [(x-x)^2 + (y-y)^2]

d = sqrt [(-7 - - 2)^2 + (7-3)^2]

d = sqrt[(-7+2)^2 + (4)^2]

d = sqrt [(-5)^2 + (4)^2]

d= sqrt (25 + 16)

d = sqrt 41 = 6.4

a=24; b=12

step-by-step explanation:

a/b=2: 1

a=2b

36/(1+2)=12

b=12

a=24
