Answer:
The distance is [tex]d=7.81\ units[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
the formula to calculate the distance between two points is equal to
[tex]d=\sqrt{(y2-y1)^{2}+(x2-x1)^{2}}[/tex]
we have
[tex]A(-4,0)\\B(2.5)[/tex]
substitute the values
[tex]d=\sqrt{(5-0)^{2}+(2+4)^{2}}[/tex]
[tex]d=\sqrt{(5)^{2}+(6)^{2}}[/tex]
[tex]d=\sqrt{61}\ units[/tex]
[tex]d=7.81\ units[/tex]
