The correct calculation using the Pythagorean Theorem is:
√((7-(-3))^2 + (-1-5)^2)
√(10^2 + (-6)^2)
√(100 + 36)
√136
Therefore, the right answer is: 5 squared plus 7 squared is equal to the square root of 136.
(-3,5) (7, -1)

I apologize for the confusion in my initial response. Let me calculate the distance between the points (-3,5) and (7,-1) using the Pythagorean Theorem again:
Distance = √((7 - (-3))^2 + (-1 - 5)^2)
Distance = √(10^2 + (-6)^2)
Distance = √(100 + 36)
Distance = √136
Therefore, the distance between the two points (-3,5) and (7,-1) is equal to √136.
Distance = √((7 - (-3))^2 + (-1 - 5)^2)
Distance = √(10^2 + (-6)^2)
Distance = √(100 + 36)
Distance = √136
Therefore, the distance between the two points (-3,5) and (7,-1) is equal to √136.
