Answer:

The answer is

10.8 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between two points can be found by using the formula

[tex]d = \sqrt{ ({x1 - x2})^{2} + ({y1 - y2})^{2} } \\ [/tex]

where

(x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2) are the points

From the question the points are

(-3,5) and (7,1)

The distance between them is

[tex]d = \sqrt{( { - 3 - 7})^{2} + ({5 - 1})^{2} } \\ = \sqrt{ ({ - 10})^{2} + {4}^{2} } \\ = \sqrt{100 + 16} \\ = \sqrt{116} \\ = 2 \sqrt{29} \\ \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: = 10.770329[/tex]

We have the final answer as

10.8 units to the nearest tenth

Hope this helps you
