Answer:

A.  19 units

Step-by-step explanation:

If they were not on the same y-axis, we could use the distance formula to figure it out, but as they are, we can use a simple subtraction problem!

      Since the y's are the same, coordinate points are (x, y), we can subtract the x's. We get 21 - 2 = -19. We cannot have a negative distance (unless we are talking about velocity and blah blah, different topic) so it must be positive 19 units!

Note

The Distance Formula Is:

[tex]\sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^{2}+(y_{2}-y_{1})^{2}}[/tex]

Hope this helps, have a nice day!
