2. what is the distance between the points (1, –6) and (–5, 2)?
round your answer to the nearest tenth.

a.
5.6 units

b.
7.2 units

c.
9.0 units

d.
10.0 units

They are 6 apart on the x axis and 8 apart on the y axis so if you use the distance of y to be one side of a triangle and the distance of x to be the other, you can use pythagorus to find the hypoteneus which should be the distance between the two points.

ex. √(6² + 8²) = distance
  
      √(36 + 64) = distance
   
      √100 = distance
  
       10 = distance

distance between the two points is D) 10.

11/2=11➗2=5.5hours and when you put that into this equation 5.5h➗4=1.375h•3=(4.125h) that is the answer, round to the nearest 10th if you feel as tho that’s what your teacher wants
