Answer:
6 units
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for calculating the distance between two points is expressed as;
[tex]D = \sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}[/tex]
Given the coordinate points E=(-6,8) and N=(-1,5)
[tex]EN = \sqrt{(5-8)^2+(-1+6)^2}\\EN = \sqrt{(-3)^2+(5)^2}\\EN = \sqrt{9+25}\\EN = \sqrt{34}\\EN = 5.8\\EN \approx 6[/tex]
Hence the distance between the points is approximately 6 units
