The distance is 15

√(2−2)2+(7−−8)^2

√(2−2)2+(7+8)^2

√0+(15)^2

√225

√225≈15

Answer:

The answer is 15.

Step-by-step explanation: To find the answer you have to think of a number line and think how many spaces do I have to jump to get to seven from negative eight.So you have to add eight just to get to 0. Now add 7 to get to 7. Together it equals 15.
