Question

Please help!!!! For each set of given points A, B, C, and D on a number line, find the distances AB, BC, AC, and BD: A(–3); B(5); C(–12); D(–13)

Answer 1

AB=8 BC=17 AC=9 BD=18

Explanation:

Okay, so A is -3 and B is 5, so the distance would be 8, because the difference between -3 and 5 is 8. The same goes for all the rest. The distance on the number line is the difference between the two numbers they represent.
