Answer:

13 units

Step-by-step explanation:

(x₁,y₁) = (-5 , 3)   & (x₂ , y₂) = (7 ,8)

[tex]Distance = \sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^{2}+(y_{2}-y_{1})^{2}} \\[/tex]

              [tex]= \sqrt{(7-[-5])^{2}+(8-3)^{2}} \\\\= \sqrt{(7+5)^{2}+(8-3)^{2}} \\\\= \sqrt{(12)^{2}+(5)^{2}}\\\\=\sqrt{144+25}\\\\=\sqrt{169}\\\\= 13[/tex]
