(2, 7) and (-6, -2) find the distance between each pair of points

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

We are given the points (2, 7) and (-6, -2). We want to find the distance between them. To do that, we can use the distance formula

The distance formula is given as , where and are points

We have 2 points, which is what we need to find the distance, but let's label their values to avoid any confusion

Now substitute those values into the formula:

Simplify the values under the radical:

Raise to the second power:

Add the numbers under the radical together

The answer can be left as that, as the radical cannot be simplified.

Hope this helps!
