Answer 1

[Top Question] Answer: A. |-6| + |3|

Explanation:

First, we realize they are both on the same y-axis as they both have y-values of 4. This means that we can "ignore" the y-value and focus on the x-value. To find the distance between these two points, we will find the absolute value of the x-values and add them together. This gives us answer option A;

A. |-6| + |3|

[Bottom Question] Answer: 36
`(3)/(4)` units²

Explanation:

To find the area of a parallelogram, we multiply the base by the height. I will change 8
`(3)/(4)` into 8.75 and 4
`(1)/(5)` into 4.2 to make multiplying with a calculator easier.

A = bh

A = (8.75 units)(4.2 units)

A = 36.75 units² = 36
`(3)/(4)` units²
