Alright first off you are trying to find the distance of those two points, NOT the slope.

The distance formula is

distance= Sq rt ((a-c)(a-c) + (b-d)(b-d))

where (a,b) and (c,d) are points on a graph…It’s hard to write the formula for you, which is above but I can tell you want it means.

The distance between two points is the square root of (a-c) squared, plus (b-d) squared. When you get your answer you round to the nearest tenth, which is 1 place after the decimal point.

So in your case it’s like this

(10- (-8)) sq+ (14-14) sq

so we get 324 + 0= 324

take the square root of that and we get 18!

Hope this helps!

the distance formula is

d= sq rt (x2-x1)2+(y2-y1)2

d=sq rt (-8-10)2+(14-14)2

=sq rt (-18)2

=18

d=18

_/(x1 – x2)^2 + (y1 – y2)^2

its the square root of ((x1-x2)^2 + (y1-y2)^2)

so the square root of (18^2)

k?
