Answer:

The distance between the two points is approximately 11 units

Explanation:

Here, we are to give the distance between the given two points to the nearest whole number;

To calculate the distance, we shall be using the distance formula;

D = √(x2-x1)^2 + (y2-y1)^2

(x1,y1) = (5,6)

(x2,y2) = (1,-4)

D = √(1-5)^2 + (-4-6)^2

D = √((-4)^2 + (-10)^2

D = √(16+100)

D = √(116)

D = 10.77 units which is approximately 11 units
