Find the distance between (-5, -8) and (-1, -16).

To calculate the distance between two points, you have to use the distance formula.

point 1 is (-5, -8) and point 2 is (-1, -16). The x coordinate is before the comma and the y coordinate is after the comma.

The distance formula is:

Distance =

Insert your coordinates into the formula.

Combine your terms.

Square your numbers.

Add these terms together.

Your answer is or 8.94

d = 8.944

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between two points

d = √(x2 - x1)^2 + ( y2 - y1)^2

d - distance

( x1 , x2) -first point

( y1 , y2) -second point

( -5 , -8) ( -1 , -16)

x1 = -5

y1 = -8

x2 = -1

y2 = -16

d = √( -1 - (-5)^2 + ( -16 - (-8)^2

= √( -1 + 5)^2 + ( -16 + 8)^2

= √ 4^2 + (-8)^2

= √ 16 + 64

= √ 80

= 8.944

d. is the correct answer
