Answer:

Distance between two points = 2

Explanation:

Distance formula:

The distance between two points (x_{1},y_{1}) \:and\: (x_{2},y_{2}) is

\sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^{2}+(y_{2}-y_{1})^{2}}.

Now ,

Let (x_{1},y_{1})=(\frac{-8}{5},2) \: and \: //(x_{2},y_{2})=(\frac{2}{5},2)

Distance = \sqrt{\left(\frac{2}{5}-\frac{(-8)}{5}\right)^{2}+(2-2)^{2}}

=\sqrt\left({\frac{2}{5}-\frac{(-8)}{5}\right)^{2}+0}

=\sqrt\left({\frac{2}{5}+\frac{8}{5}\right)^{2}}

= \frac{2}{5}+\frac{8}{5}

= $\frac{10}{5}$

=$2$

Therefore,

Distance = 2
