Explanation:

Let the distance between two points A = (-4,7) and B = (4,0).

Here, x1 = -4 , y1 = 7

x2 = 4 , y2 = 0

Use the distance formula to find out the distance between two points are:

AB = √[(x2-x1)²+(y2-y1)²]

= √[{4-(-4)}²+(0-7)²]

= √[(4+4)²+(-7)²]

= √[(8)² + (-7)²]

= √[(8*8)+(-7*-7)]

= √[64+49]

= √[113] ⇛10.630 units approximately.
