Answer & Step-by-step explanation:
For this problem, we are going too have to use the distance formula.
[tex]Distance = \sqrt{(x2-x1)^2+(y2-y1)^2}[/tex]
We can plug in the coordinate points that we are given to their respectful places.
[tex]Distance=\sqrt{(6-8)^2+(-6-1)^2}[/tex]
[tex]Distance=\sqrt{(-2)^2+(-7)^2}[/tex]
[tex]Distance=\sqrt{4+49}[/tex]
[tex]Distance=\sqrt{53}[/tex]
[tex]Distance=7.3[/tex]
So, the distance between the pool and the main office is 7.3 miles.
