Answer:
[tex]d=\sqrt{73}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]Q(5, -1)[/tex]
[tex]P(-3, 2)[/tex]
Using the distance formula:
[tex]d=\sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^2+(y_2+y_1)^2}[/tex]
[tex]d=\sqrt{(-3-5)^2+(2-(-1))^2}[/tex]
[tex]d=\sqrt{(-8)^2+(3)^2}[/tex]
[tex]d=\sqrt{64+9}[/tex]
[tex]d=\sqrt{64+9}[/tex]
[tex]d=\sqrt{73}[/tex]
[tex]d\approx 8.5[/tex]
