Answer:

The distance between points F and G is:

18 units.

The point F is located on the number line at: -6

and the point G is located on the number line at: 12

We know that the distance between two points on the number line located at a and b is calculated as the absolute difference between a and b

i.e. Distance between two points= |a-b|

Here a= -6 and b=12

i.e.

Distance between F and G is: |-6-12|

i.e.

Distance between F and G is: |-18|

i.e.

Distance between F and G is: 18 units

It is given in the question that

point F is at -6 and point point G is at 12 .

And we have to find the distance between F and G. And for that, we need to subtract position of point F from position of point G .

That is

FG = 12-(-6)

$FG = 12+6 \\ FG = 18$

THerefore distance between F and G is 18 units .
