If you mean absolute value, it is 13. If you are talking about distance, it is 26. -13 to 0 is 13. (-13 + 13 = 0) Then, you add 13 again, to get from 0 to 13. (0 + 13 = 13.)

Answer:

26 units

Explanation:

Due to:

in the rect line, left to zero = 13 (absolute value)

in the rect line, right to zero = 13 (absolute value)

So the sum of each absolute value is the distance.
