Answer:

15 units

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]distance formula =\sqrt{(x_{2} -x_{1} )^{2} + (y_2 -y1)^{2} } } \\[/tex]

[tex]x_{1} = -2\\x_{2} = -14\\y_{1} = -5\\y_{2} = 4[/tex]

[tex]distance\\= \sqrt{(-14 - -2)^{2} + (4 - -5)^2 } \\= \sqrt{(-12)^2 + (9)^2} \\= \sqrt{144 + 81} \\= \sqrt{225} \\= 15\\Thus distance between the two points (-2,-5) and (-14,4) = 15 units[/tex]

Hope it helps....
