Answer:

The distance is [tex]12.8\ units[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The formula to calculate the distance between two points is equal to

[tex]d=\sqrt{(x2-x1)^{2}+(y2-y1)^{2}+(z2-z1)^{2}}[/tex]

we have

[tex]A(1,-2,5)\\B(0,7,-4)[/tex]  

substitute the values

[tex]d=\sqrt{(0-1)^{2}+(7+2)^{2}+(-4-5)^{2}}[/tex]

[tex]d=\sqrt{(-1)^{2}+(9)^{2}+(-9)^{2}}[/tex]

[tex]d=\sqrt{1+81+81}[/tex]

[tex]d=\sqrt{163}\ units[/tex]

[tex]d=12.8\ units[/tex]
