Answer:

Distance (d) =13.6

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]d=\sqrt{\left(x_2-x_1\right)^2+\left(y_2-y_1\right)^2}\\\\(5,-4)=(x_1,y_1)\\(-3,7)=(x_2,y_2)\\\\d=\sqrt{\left(-3-5\right)^2+\left(7-\left(-4\right)\right)^2}\\\\d=\sqrt{(-3-5)^2+(7+4)^2}\\\\d=\sqrt{(-8)^2+(11)^2}\\\\d=\sqrt{64+121}\\\\d=\sqrt{185} \\\\d = 13.60147\dots \\\\\\d =13.6[/tex]
