Do the Euclidean distance for points in 1-D. i.e.
distance = squareroot(p(x)-q(x))
Let P=p(x)=7,7
Let Q=q(x)=2.5
distance = sqrroot((7,7-2.5)sqared) or absolutevalue(7.7-2.5)
you can also reverse the 7.7 and 2.5, and the answer comes out the same:
=5.2

Are you referring to coordinate points at (7, 7) and (2, 5)?

I beilive you are asking to use those coordinate points.
D=sqrt((7-2)^2+(7-5)^2)
D=sqrt(25+4)
D=sqrt(29)
D= aprox. 5.3851648

â((7 - 2)^2 + (7 - 5)^2)

5.2, its just 7.7-2.5
