The formula for calculating the distance between two points is:
d = ( x 2 - x 1 ) 2 + ( y 2 - y 1 ) 2 + ( z 2 - z 1 ) 2
Substituting the values from the points in the problem and calculating gives:
d = ( - 8 - 7 ) 2 + ( 1 - 3 ) 2 + ( - 1 + 6 ) 2
d = 225 + 4 + 25
d = 254 = 15.94 rounded to the nearest hundblackth
