Answer:

The answer is

<h2>\sqrt{85}  \:  \:  \: units</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

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

d =  \sqrt{ ({x1 - x2})^{2} +  ({y1 - y2})^{2}  }  \\

where

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

From the question the points are

(-1,-7) and (8,-9)

The distance between them is

d =  \sqrt{( { - 1 - 8})^{2}  +  ({ - 7 + 9})^{2} }  \\  =  \sqrt{ ({  - 9})^{2} +  {2}^{2}  }  \\  =  \sqrt{81 + 4}

We have the final answer as

\sqrt{85}  \:  \:  \: units

Hope this helps you
