Answer:

D.26.0 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : the points A(-4,-8) and B(6,16),

Let d be the distance between A and B.

Then

[tex]d=\sqrt{\left( 16-\left( -8\right) \right)^{2} +\left( 6-(-4)\right)^{2} }[/tex]

  [tex]=\sqrt{\left( 24\right)^{2} +\left( 10\right)^{2} }[/tex]

  [tex]=\sqrt{676 }[/tex]

  [tex]=26[/tex]
