Question 747891: Can I please get help to find the distance between (1,9) and (5,10) and if necessary round the answer to two decimal places.
And also if I can get help to find the midpoint of the line segment whose points are (3,2) and (7,8). Thanks

find the distance between (1,9) and (5,10) and if necessary round the answer to two decimal places.
d%5E2+=+siffy%5E2+%2B+diffx%5E2+=+%289-10%5E2%29+%2B+%281-5%29%5E2
d%5E2+=+17
d =~ 4.12
=======================
And also if I can get help to find the midpoint of the line segment whose points are (3,2) and (7,8)
It's the average of x & y separately.
For x: (3+7)/2 = 5
For y: (2+8)/2 = 5
--> (5,5)
