The distance between two points (a, b) and (c, d) is given by:


\sqrt[]{(c-a)^2+(d-b)^2}

For points (-4, 2) and (10, 2), we have:

a = -4

b = 2

c = 10

d = 2

Thus, the distance between those points is


\sqrt[]{\lbrack10-(-4)\rbrack^2+(2-2)^2}=\sqrt[]{(10+4)^2+0}=\sqrt[]{14^2}=14

Therefore, the answer is 14.
