Find the distance between the origin and (-12,-9)

Distance (d) = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

The given requires the distance between the point of origin, (0, 0), and (-12, 9). We can use the following distance formula for this problem:

Let (x₁, y₁) = (0, 0)

     (x₂, y₂) = (-12, 9)

Substitute these values into the distance formula.

Perform the required subtraction within each parenthesis:

Next, take the squared values of -12 and 9 under the radical:

Add 144 and 81:

Distance (d) = 15

Therefore, the distance between the point of origin and (-12, 9) is 15.
