Answer:
[tex] \boxed{ \bold{ \boxed{ \sf{22 \: units}}}}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the points be A and B
A ( -8 , - 18 )⇒( x₁ , y₁ )
B ( 14 , -18 )⇒( x₂ , y₂)
Finding the distance between these two points
[tex] \sf{ \sqrt{ {(x2 - x1)}^{2} + {(y2 - y1)}^{2} } }[/tex]
Plug the values
⇒[tex] \sf{ \sqrt{ {(14 - ( - 8)}^{2} + {( - 18 - ( - 18))}^{2} } }[/tex]
We know that,[tex] \sf{( - ) \times ( - ) = ( + )}[/tex]
⇒[tex] \sf{ \sqrt{ {(14 + 8)}^{2} + {( - 18 + 18)}^{2} } }[/tex]
Calculate
⇒[tex] \sf{ \sqrt{ {22}^{2} + {0}^{2} } }[/tex]
Evaluate the power
⇒[tex] \sf{ \sqrt{484} }[/tex]
⇒[tex] \sf{{22} }[/tex] units
Hope I helped !
Best regards!!
