You could use a coordinate plane to solve this.

To reach B from point A, move 2 to the left and 9 down. Hope this helped, sorry I was in a rush-

Answer: 9.21

Explanation:

To find the distance between two points find the difference between the x and y values then square them and add them to find their square root.

0-9 = - 9

2 - 0 = 2

(-9)^2 + 2^2 = d^2 d is the distance

81 + 4 = d^2

85 = d^2

d =
√(85)

d= 9.23 is about 9.23 when rounded to the nearest hundredth
