Answer:
≈ 3.6
Step-by-step explanation:
Calculate the distance d using the distance formula
d = [tex]\sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^2+(y_{2}-y_{1})^2 }[/tex]
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (P(5, 1) and (x₂, y₂ ) = Q(3, 4)
d = [tex]\sqrt{(3-5)^2+(4-1)^2}[/tex]
= [tex]\sqrt{(-2)^2+3^2}[/tex]
= [tex]\sqrt{4+9}[/tex]
= [tex]\sqrt{13}[/tex] ≈ 3.6 ( to the nearest tenth )
