  1. SR has endpoint S(-2, 14) and R(3, -1). What is SR to the nearest tenth?

  2. In Problem 3 on page 52 of your textbook, suppose you let V(4, -2) be (x1, y1) and U(-7, 5) be (x2, y2). Do you get the same result? Explain why or why not.


(Will get 5 stars & a thanks. High pts but will report if your answer is unnecessary.)

I was told to disregard problem 2

so, I would assume the problem is asking us to find the distance of the line segment SR

so
the distance between the points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) is

\(\sqrt{(x1-x2)^2+(y1-y2)^2}\)

given

(-2,14) and (3,-1)

\(\sqrt{(-2-3)^2+(14-(-1))^2}\)=
\(\sqrt{(-5)^2+(14+1)^2}\)=
\(\sqrt{25+(15)^2}\)=
\(\sqrt{25+225}\)=
\(\sqrt{650}\)=
15.81
rounded
15.8

I know it's too late lol but for number two I think you'd get the same result.
