Answer:

[tex]d=\sqrt{53}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the distance between two points i.e. (−5,−1) and (−3,−8).

It can be calculated using distance formula as follows :

[tex]d=\sqrt{(y_2-y_1)^2+(x_2-x_1)^2}[/tex]

We have, x₁ = -5, x₂ = -3, y₁ = -1 and y₂ = -8

Put all the values,

[tex]d=\sqrt{(-8-(-1))^2+(-3-(-5))^2}\\\\d=\sqrt{49+4}\\\\d=\sqrt{53}[/tex]

So, the distance between the points is equal to [tex]\sqrt{53}[/tex]
