Answer:

  8.1 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The horizontal distance is 6-2 = 4 units.

The vertical distance is 8-1 = 7 units.

The distance from S to U must be more than 7 units and less than 7+4 = 11 units. There is only one answer choice in this range:

  8.1 units

__

Additional comment

If you want to figure the distance, it is the hypotenuse of a right triangle with legs 4 and 7. The Pythagorean theorem tells you that distance is ...

  SU² = 4² +7² = 16 +49 = 65

  SU = √65 ≈ 8.062 ≈ 8.1
