Answer:
D. 12 units
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance between two points is found by
d = sqrt( (x2-x1)^2 + (y2-y1)^2)
sqrt( (4 -4)^2 + (-5-7)^2)
sqrt((0^2 + (-12)^2)
sqrt(0+144)
sqrt(144)
12
You can use models to help you divide by making the number of models as your divisor. For example let's say I am dividing 8 ÷ 2. So you would make 8 circles (doesn't have to be circle it can be whatever like squares) and then make groups of 2 until you run out of circles. Then how many groups there are is your answer. 8÷2=4. Hope I helped!
