The given points are (-6, 1) and (2, 2).
To find the distance between these points, we need to use the following formula
[tex]d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}[/tex]Replacing the given points, we have
[tex]d=\sqrt{(2-(-6))^2+(2-1)^2}=\sqrt{(8)^2+(1)^2}=\sqrt{64+1}=\sqrt{65}[/tex]Which is approximately 8.06.
