| Label the points as ( x1, y1 ) =
( 2, -5 ) and ( x2, y2 ) = ( -3, -7 ). Therefore, x1 = 2, y1 = -5, x2 = -3, and y2 = -7. To find the distance d
between the points, use the distance formula : |
Question 2
| Given the points A and B
where A is at coordinates ( 2,
-5 ) and B is at coordinates ( -3, -7 ) on the line segment AB, find the length of AB. |
