Which equation correctly shows how to determine the distance between the points open paren 9 comma negative 2 close paren and open paren 6 comma 3 close paren on a coordinate grid?

Use the distance formula: d = √((x₂ − x₁)² + (y₂ − y₁)²). For the points (9, −2) and (6, 3), this gives d = √((6 − 9)² + (3 − (−2))²), which matches the equation in choice B. The coordinates are subtracted by their corresponding x- and y-values.
