ANSWER

The distance is between point A(4, -3) and B( -4,3) is 10 units.

Step-by-step explanation

Given: A(4, -3) and B( -4,3).

To find the distance between the two points, we will use the formula below:


|d|=\sqrt[]{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}

From the points given,

x₁ = 4 y₁ = -3 x₂=-4 y₂=3

Substitute the formula into the equation and evaluate.


|AB|=\sqrt[]{(-4-4)^2+(3+3)^2}
=\sqrt[]{(-8)^2+(6)^2}
=\sqrt[]{64+36}
=\sqrt[]{100}
=10

Hence, the distance is between point A(4, -3) and B( -4,3) is 10 units.
