Answer:
The distance between the two points provided is:

Explanation:
First thing is to evaluate what the distance formula is:
d =

Then substitute the points provided:
d =

(The double negative between -5 and -1 will make the -1 a positive 1). (1)
d =

Now the exponents:
d =

Second to last, you must add:
d =

If needed ± should be added in front of the radical.
The points are the same as the ones that were given.
