: find the distance between each pair of points
d. (1,2) and (-3,-1) This question is from textbook algebra 1

The general formula for determining the distance between two points is
Square Root[(y2-y1)^2 + (x2-x1)^2]
with x1 = 1
x2 = -3
y1 = 2
y2 = -1
Substituting the values into the gnereal formula, we have
Square Root[(-1-2)^2+(-3-1)^2] = Square Root[9+16]=Square Root[25]=5
I hope that helps.
Good luck
