Answer:  sqrt(27.2) =approx 5.215

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between 2 points can be calculated using Phitagor theorem

L= sqrt( (x1-x2)²+(y1-y2)²)

Where x1, y1 are the coordinates of the first point and  x2, y2 are the coordinates of the 2-nd point.

L=sqrt((3.1-2.7)²+(0.3-(-4.9))²)= sqrt(0.4²+5.2²)=sqrt(27.2) - this is exact answer.

sqrt(27.2)=5.21536...=approx 5.215
