Answer:

5 units

Explanation:

Use the distance formula. d=sqrt((y2-y1)^2+(x2-x1)^2)

d is the distance, and (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) are your points.

Use (0,5) for (x1,y1) and (3,9) for (x2,y2).

d=sqrt((9-5)^2+(3-0)^2)

=sqrt(4^2 + 3^2)

=sqrt(16+9)

=sqrt(25)

=5

They are 5 units apart. Hope I could help you!
