Answer:
Option B 13 units is correct.
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula used to find distance between 2 points is:
[tex]d(P1,P2)=\sqrt{(x_{2} -x_{1})^2 + (y_{2} -y_{1})^2 }[/tex]
x₁ = 12 x₂ = 0 y₁= 9 and y₂=4
Putting values in the formula:
[tex]=\sqrt{(0-12)^2+(4-9)^2}\\=\sqrt{(-12)^2+(-5)^2}\\=\sqrt{144+25} \\=\sqrt{169} \\=13[/tex]
So, Option B 13 units is correct.
Answer:
B) 13 units
Step-by-step explanation:
1) Use the equation for solving the distance between points:
√(x2 - x1)²+(y2-y1)²
2) In this case, we would plug them into the equation:
√(12-0)²+(9-4)²
3) Now, we simplify:
√(12)²+(5)²
4) We simplify even further:
√144+25
5) We add the two:
√169
6) Take the square root of √169:
13.
