Given Coordinates: x1 = -12 y1 = 7, x2 = 10 y2 = 9
Distance Formula: d = √(x2 − x1)2 + (y2 − y1)2
Substitute the given coordinates into the Distance Formula and Simplify:
d = √(10 − (-12))2 + (9 − 7)2
d = √(10 + 12)2 + (9 − 7)2
d = √222 + 22
d = √484 + 4
d = √488
d = √4 * 122
d = √4 * √122
d = 2√122
Therefore, the distance between the points (-12, 7) and (10, 9) is equal to 2√122
Note: As a decimal number, 2√122 ≈ 22.090722034375
