Solution

The distance between two points in a plane is given by the formula:

d = sqrt[(x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²]

In this case, the coordinates of the points are N(-5, -13) and P(-5, -4).

So, x1 = -5, y1 = -13, x2 = -5, and y2 = -4.

Substituting these values into the formula, we get:

d = sqrt[(-5 - (-5))² + (-4 - (-13))²] d = sqrt[(0)² + (9)²] d = sqrt[0 + 81] d = sqrt[81] d = 9

So, the distance between points N and P is 9 units.
