Answer:
d=7.2
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use the Pythagoras theorem to solve for the answer.
step one:
given that the points are located at (x1,y1),(x2,y2) =(3, -6) and (-3,2)
[tex]d=\sqrt{(x2-x1)^2-(y2-y1)^2}[/tex]
step two:
substituting into the formula we have
[tex]d=\sqrt{(-3-3)^2+(2-(6))^2} \\\\d=\sqrt{(-6)^2+(2+6))^2} \\\\d=\sqrt{(36+(-4)^2} \\\\d=\sqrt{(36+16} \\\\d=\sqrt{52} \\\\\\d=7.211[/tex]
To the nearest tenth we have
d=7.2
