Answer:

10

Explanation:

Let us draw a number line.

From the line we can find the distance.

Now, from the graph we can see that ,

distance between -12 and -2 is 10

You can find it using absolute value.

Then distance would be

|-12-(-2)|

=|-12+2|

=|-10|

=10

since, |-x|=x


So, the distance is 10

Use absolute value to show the distance on the number line between -12 and -2.-example-1
