Answer:
5√(2)

Explanation:


Distance\ formula=√((x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2) }

plugging in the values we know:


x_2 = 3,\ x_1=-4,\ y_2=7,\ y_1=6

Therefore,


Distance=√((3-(-4))^2+(7-6)^2)


\rightarrow\ √((3+4)^2+(1)^2)


\rightarrow\ √(7^2+1)


\rightarrow\ √(50)


\rightarrow\ √(5*5*2)


\rightarrow\ \large\boxed{5√(2)}
