Answer:


√(137)

Explanation:

Student A is at point (7, -5). Student B is at point (-4, -1).

We can find the distance between the two points using the distance formula.


d = √((x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2)


d = √((-4 - 7)^2 + (-1 - (-5))^2)


d = √((-11)^2 + (4)^2)


d = √(121 + 16)


d = √(137)

Answer:
√(137)
