on a map where each unit represents one kilometer two marinas are located at p(4,2) and q(8,12). if a boat travels in a straight line from one marina to the other how far does the boat travel. Answer choices: 14 kilometers 2^296 kilometer 2^5 kilometers

Respuesta :

Solution

Step 1:

Write the two given points:

p(4,2) and q(8,12)

Step 2

Find the distance between the two points:

[tex]\begin{gathered} Distance\text{ = }\sqrt{(8-4)^2+(12-2)^2} \\ \\ =\text{ }\sqrt{4^2+10^2} \\ \\ =\text{ }\sqrt{16+100} \\ \\ =\text{ }\sqrt{116} \\ \\ =\text{ 2}\sqrt{29} \end{gathered}[/tex]
