Hi there! :)

`\large\boxed{d = √(73)}`

Use the distance formula to solve for the distance between P and Q:

`d = \sqrt {\left( {x_2 - x_1 } \right)^2 + \left( {y_2 - y_1 } \right)^2 }`

The coordinates of point P are (-3, 2) and the coordinates of point Q are (5, -1). Plug these values into the equation above:

`d = \sqrt {\left( {5- (-3) } \right)^2 + \left( {-1 - 2 } \right)^2 }`

Simplify:

`d = \sqrt {\left( 8 } \right)^2 + \left( {-4} \right)^2 }`

`d = \sqrt {64 + 9 }`

`d = √(73)`
