The distance between two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is given by the formula:d = sqrt((x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2)Using this formula, we can find the distance between A (2, - 2) and B (9, 4):d = sqrt((9 - 2)^2 + (4 - (-2))^2)= sqrt(7^2 + 6^2)= sqrt(49 + 36)= sqrt(85)= 9.22 (rounded to two decimal places)Therefore, the distance between A and B is 9.22.
