Answer:

[tex]\sqrt{85}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the distance d using the distance formula

d = [tex]\sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^2+(y_{2-y_{1})^2 } }[/tex]

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 5, 8 ) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (4, 6 )

d = [tex]\sqrt{4-(-5))^2+(6-8)^2}[/tex]

  = [tex]\sqrt{(4+5)^2+(-2)^2}[/tex]

  = [tex]\sqrt{9^2+4}[/tex]

  = [tex]\sqrt{81+4}[/tex]

  = [tex]\sqrt{85}[/tex]
