Answer:

d=sqrt29

Explanation:

This problem requires the distance formula, d = sqrt([x1 - x2]^2 + [y1-y2])

x1 and y1 are the x and y coordinates of the first point, and x2 and y2 the second.

Plug in the values.

d = sqrt([4 - 2]^2 + [7-2]^2)

Simplify

d=sqrt(2^2 + 5^2)

d = sqrt(4 + 25)

d=sqrt29

If you'd like a visual representation of the distance formula, google it and it will show you.
