Answer:The Answer is 10!!!

Explanation:

If you plot (1,4) and (-5,-4) on a graph, you can see that you can form a right triangle.

you would count the values on the X-axis and on the Y-axis. The values are 6 and 8 respectively.

You put the values on the second power and add them. So the equation would be 6^2 + 8^2. The answer would be 100. Because the Pythagorean Theorem is a^2 + b^2= c^2, you would square root would be 10. The distance between the two points is 10.
