Answer:

d(A,B) = 5 u.c.

Step-by-step explanation:

So the formula is:

d(A,B) = [tex]\sqrt{(x_{B}-x_{A})^{2}+ (y_{B}-y_{A})^{2}[/tex] =

Let's substitute.

= [tex]\sqrt{(-5+5)^{2}+(-3-2)^{2}}[/tex] = (Atention to the signals, (-) + (-) = (+)

=√0² + (-5)² = √25 = 5 u.c.

(u.c. means units of compriment)
