To the nearest tenth, find the approximate distance between points a and c. graph with coordinates a negative 4, negative 4. b negative 2, 5. c 2, 1. d 2, negative 4. a. 3.3 units b. 7.8 units c. 5.2 units d. 3.6 units !

We have that
A(-4,-4) B(-2,5)  C(2,1)  D(2,-4)

step  1
find the distance AC with the formula 
d=√[(y2-y1)²+(x2-x1)²]> dAC=√[(1+4)²+(2+4)²]> dAC=√61 units
dAC=√61> dAC=7.8 units

the answer is
the option
B. 7.8 units

Where the white dots are is where your points should be plotted.a translation is simply just moving something from one place to another. in this case, you would move each plot point of the original shape 2 units up, and 5 units to the left.
