Answer:
y =9
Step-by-step explanation:
you know the distance is 10 and some of the x,y points. so start filling what you know into the distance formula
10= √((9-1)^2 + (y-3)^2 )
square both sides to get ride of the square root
100 = 64 + (y-3)^2
36 = (y-3)^2
6 = y-3
y = 9
double check by using 9 for Y and you’ll see it works.
