To find the distance between Point A \((-7, -2)\) and Point B \((-12, -2)\), we can use the distance formula. However, since both points have the same y-coordinate (\(-2\)), we can simply subtract their x-coordinates.
The distance \(d\) can be calculated as follows:
\[
d = |x_2 - x_1| = |-12 - (-7)| = |-12 + 7| = |-5| = 5
\]
Therefore, the distance between Point A and Point B is **5**.
