Answer:

The distance between the point (−10, −2) and the point (−4, −2) is 6 units .

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula

\(Distance\ formula = \sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^{2}+(y_{2}-y_{1})^{2}}\)

As given

The distance between the point (−10, −2) and the point (−4, −2) .

\(Distance\ formula = \sqrt{(-4-(-10))^{2}+(-2-(-2))^{2}}\)

\(Distance\ formula = \sqrt{(-4+10)^{2}+(-2+2)^{2}}\)

\(Distance\ formula = \sqrt{(6)^{2}+(0)^{2}}\)

\(Distance\ formula = \sqrt{36}\)

\(\sqrt{36}=6\)

\(Distance\ formula =6\ units\)

Therefore the distance between the point (−10, −2) and the point (−4, −2) is 6 units .
