Fiona is playing fetch with her dog. She is standing at the coordinate point (7, - 5). When she throws the stick, it lands at the
coordinate point (-1,10). How far did Fiona throw the stick.

Respuesta :

15/8 pretty much I know right

Using the distance between the two points, it is found that Fiona threw the stick a distance of 13.6 units.

----------------------

Distance between two points:

The distance between points [tex](x_1,y_1)[/tex] and [tex](x_2,y_2)[/tex] is given by:

[tex]D = \sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}[/tex]

----------------------

  • Fiona throws the stick from coordinate point (7,-1), and it lands at (-1,10). The distance she threw the stick is the distance between these two points, thus:

[tex]D = \sqrt{(-1 - 7)^2+(10-(-1))^2}[/tex]

[tex]D = \sqrt{(-8)^2 + (11)^2}[/tex]

[tex]D = \sqrt{185}[/tex]

[tex]D = 13.6[/tex]

Fiona threw the stick a distance of 13.6 units.
