Question

after school, dontrell and keiki walk home. dontrell walks 2 blocks west and 11 blocks south. keiki walks 7 blocks west and 10 blocks south. on the graph, the school is located at the origin. determine the distance between dontrells house (point d) and keikis house (point k). enter the coordinates of the two - given points and then calculate the distance between them. coordinates (x1, y1) of point d: coordinates (x2, y2) of point k: (7, 7) d = √((x2 - x1)^2+(y2 - y1)^2) d = √(( )^2+( )^2) d = the distance between dontrells house and keikis house is blocks

Explanation:

Answer:

Coordinates \((x_1,y_1)\) of point D: \((- 2,-11)\)
Coordinates \((x_2,y_2)\) of point K: \((-7,-10)\)
\(d=\sqrt{((-7)-(-2))^{2}+((-10)-(-11))^{2}}\)
\(d=\sqrt{(-5)^{2}+1^{2}}\)
\(d=\sqrt{25 + 1}=\sqrt{26}\approx5.1\)
The distance between Dontrell's house and Keiki's house is \(\sqrt{26}\approx5.1\) blocks
