Answer:

11

Explanation:

For this problem, we simply need to apply the distance formula:

distance = sqrt[ (y2 - y1)^2 + (x2 - x1) ]

distance = sqrt[ (10 - 0)^2 + (4 - 0)^2 ]

distance = sqrt[ (10)^2 + (4)^2 ]

distance = sqrt[ 100 + 16]

distance = sqrt [ 116 ]

distance ~= 10.77

The approximate distance rounded to a whole number is 11.

Cheers.
