There is no single definition of distance. There are metric spaces with different types of distance defined for them.
For example, in city such as Manhattan, the distance between two points could be the Euclidean distance: the distance "as the crow flies", or it could be the "Minkovski or Taxicab" distance, which is the number of blocks - along roads and avenues that need to be traversed. There are many other measures of distance.

Finding distance given the average speed?
Use the formula: distance = time x speed.Use the formula: distance = time x speed.Use the formula: distance = time x speed.Use the formula: distance = time x speed.
What is the formula for distance in a science problem?
The Formula for distance is SPEED X TIME
Can the distance formula can be derived from the Pythagorean theorem?
Yes, the formula for the Euclidean distance. But not necessarily other distance metrics.
What is the formula for distance as a function of acceleration and time?
Distance d=1/2 at2 is the formula.
Whats the formula for distance?
Distance= speed*time
