Uh I'm confused on how to do this may someone help?

Answer:
5
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the distance formula
[tex]\sqrt{(x_{1}-x_{2})^{2}+(y_{1}-y_{2})^{2}}[/tex]
[tex]\sqrt{(-2+7)^{2}+(4-4)^{2}}[/tex]
[tex]\sqrt{5^{2}}=5[/tex]
You can also just subtract: -2-(-7) to get 5 because the y-values are the same
