Respuesta :

Answer:

1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

(-2,5) (4,7)  Find the slope

7-5 = 2

4-(-2) = 6

reduce to 1/3

The distance between the points (-2, 5) and (4, 7) reduces to 1/3.

We have given two points

(-2,5) (4,7)

We have to determine the slope

What is the formula of the slope?

[tex]m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

[tex]7-5 = 2\\4-(-2) = 6[/tex]

[tex]m=2/6\\m=1/3[/tex]

Therefore, The distance between the points (-2, 5) and (4, 7) reduce to 1/3.
