Answer: 7.3

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the distance between these two points, find the difference in the x and y values then square them  and add them then finally find the square root of that added number obtained.

5 - 7 = -2

9 - 2 = -7  

-2^2 + -7^2 = d^2  where d is the distance

4 + 49 = d^2

53 = d^2

d = [tex]\sqrt{53}[/tex]

d= 7.2801  rounded to the nearest tenth  is 7.3
