Answer:

7 units

Explanation:

To find the distance between a pair of points, use the distance formula,
d = √((x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2). Substitute the x and y values of (5,5) and (5, -2) into the formula and simplify:


d= √((5-5)^2+(5+2)^2) \\d = √((0)^2+(7)^2) \\d = √(0+49) \\d = √(49)\\d=7

So, the answer is 7 units.
