Answer:

A) 7.07

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]The \: distance \: formula = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1) ^{2} + (y_2 - y_1) ^{2} } [/tex]

[tex]P_1(-3, -2) \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: P_2(2, 3)[/tex]

[tex]d = \sqrt{ {(2 - ( - 3))}^{2} + {(3 - ( - 2))}^{2} } \\ d = \sqrt{ {(2 + 3)}^{2} + {(3 + 2)}^{2} } \\ d = \sqrt{ {5}^{2} + {5}^{2} } \\ d = \sqrt{25 + 25} \\ d = \sqrt{25(1 + 1)} \\ d = \sqrt{25(2)} \\ d = \sqrt{25} \times \sqrt{2} \\ d = 5 \sqrt{2} \\d = 7.07106781187 \\ d = 7.07[/tex]

Answer:    A. 7.07 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between any two points (a,b) and (c,d) is given by :-

[tex]D=\sqrt{(d-b)^2+(c-a)^2}[/tex]

From the given picture , we can see that the line is passing through (2,3) and (-3,-2).

The distance between (2,3) and (-3,-2) is given by :-

[tex]D=\sqrt{(-2-3)^2+(-3-2)^2}\\\\\Rightarrow\ D=\sqrt{(-5)^2+(-5)^2}\\\\\Rightarrow\ D=\sqrt{25+25}=\sqrt{50}\\\\\Rightarrow\ D=7.07106781187\approx7.07[/tex]

Hence, the distance between the two endpoints = 7.07 units
