Answer:

The distance is Sqrt(130) or in decimal form, 11.01...

Explanation:

The distance formula states that you need to do sqrt((a-x)^2+(b-y)^2)). In this scenario (x,y)(a,b)= (1,7)(-2,-4) So we just fill in that formula. (-2-1)=-3^2=9; (-4-7)=11^2=121; 121+9=130. The distance is therefore Sqrt(130) or in decimal form, 11.01...
