Answer:

The answer is

12.2 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between two points can be found by using the formula

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

where

(x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2) are the points

From the question the points are

(-9,8) and (3,6)

The distance between them is

[tex]d = \sqrt{ ({ - 9 -3 })^{2} + ({8 - 6})^{2} } \\ = \sqrt{ ({ - 12})^{2} + {2}^{2} } \\ = \sqrt{144 + 4} \\ = \sqrt{148} \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \\ = 2 \sqrt{37} \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \\ = 12.1655...[/tex]

We have the final answer as

12.2 units

Hope this helps you
