Answer: 4.1 units
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for determining the distance between two points on a straight line is expressed as
Distance = √(x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²
Where
x2 represents final value of x on the horizontal axis
x1 represents initial value of x on the horizontal axis.
y2 represents final value of y on the vertical axis.
y1 represents initial value of y on the vertical axis.
From the graph given,
x2 = 5
x1 = 6
y2 = 3
y1 = - 1
Therefore,
Distance = √(5 - 6)² + (3 - - 1)²
Distance = √- 1² + 4² = √1 + 16 = √17
Distance = 4.1
