Answer:

The answer is

9 units

Explanation:

The distance between two points can be found by using the formula


d = \sqrt{ ({x1 - x2})^(2) + ({y1 - y2})^(2) } \\

where

(x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2) are the points

From the question the points are

(6,-5) and (-3,-5)

The distance between them is


d = \sqrt{ ({6 + 3})^(2) + ( { - 5 + 5})^(2) } \\ = \sqrt{ {9}^(2) + 0 } \\ = √(81)

We have the final answer as

9 units

Hope this helps you
