The distance between the swimming pool and Tim's house is 3.5 miles.

How to find the distance?

First, we need to find the distance between the two points, and then we multiply that by 0.5 miles.

The distance between the points (-6, 5) and (1, 5) is:

[tex]d = \sqrt{(-6 - 1)^2 + (5 - 5)^2} = 7[/tex]

Now, changing to miles, we get:

d = 7*0.5mi = 3.5mi

So the distance is 3.5 miles
