Answer 1

The distance is
`d=7.81\ units`

Explanation:

we know that

the formula to calculate the distance between two points is equal to

`d=\sqrt{(y2-y1)^(2)+(x2-x1)^(2)}`

we have

`A(-4,0)\\B(2.5)`

substitute the values

`d=\sqrt{(5-0)^(2)+(2+4)^(2)}`

`d=\sqrt{(5)^(2)+(6)^(2)}`

`d=√(61)\ units`

`d=7.81\ units`
