Correct option is A
The given equation of the line is y + 2 = 0, which simplifies to y = -2.
This represents a horizontal line passing through y = -2 on the coordinate plane.
The x-axis is represented by y = 0.
The distance between the x-axis (y = 0) and the line (y = -2) is simply the absolute difference in their y-values:
Distance = |0 - (-2)| = |2| = 2 units
Thus, the correct option is A) 2 units.
