Point P has coordinates (-4, -2) and point Q has coordinates (4, 3). Calculate the shortest distance between P and Q.
Give your answer to 1 decimal place.

≈ 9.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the distance d using the distance formula

d =

with (x₁, y₁ ) = P (- 4, - 2 ) and (x₂, y₂ ) = Q (4, 3 )

PQ =

     =

     =

     =

     =

     ≈ 9.4 ( to 1 dec. place )
