Suppose your town is laid out on a grid, as shown. The location of your house, H(3,−1), and your friend's house, F(0,3), are placed on the grid in relation to the center of town, (0,0). Each unit on the grid is equal to 1 mile.
The distance from your house to your friend's house, if that distance could be walked in a straight line, is ______ miles.
