So the distance between subway stop and house is 19 units
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance formula will be used to calculate the distance between home and subway.
[tex]d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}[/tex]
Here (x1,y1) are the coordinates of first point
and
(x2,y2) are the coordinates of second point
Given
(x1,y1) = (7, -6)
(x2,y2) = (-9,5)
Putting the values in the formula
[tex]d=\sqrt{(-9-7)^2+(5-(-6))^2} \\=\sqrt{(-16)^2+(5+6)^2} \\=\sqrt{256+(11)^2}\\=\sqrt{256+121}\\=\sqrt{377}\\=19.41\ units[/tex]
Rounding off to nearest unit gives us 19.
So the distance between subway stop and house is 19 units
