Respuesta :

The answer is A. 9.8

Answer:

Distance = 9.8 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Point B  is (-2,5) and point D is (2,-4)

LEts find the distance between these points. USe distance formula

[tex]D=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2 +(y_2-y_1)^2}[/tex]

(-2,5)  is (x1,y1)  and (2,-4) is (x2,y2)

Plug in the values and find out the distance

[tex]D=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2 +(y_2-y_1)^2}[/tex]

[tex]D=\sqrt{(2+2)^2 +(-4-5)^2}[/tex]

[tex]D=\sqrt{(4)^2 +(-9)^2}[/tex]

[tex]D=\sqrt{97}[/tex]

Distance = 9.8 units
