the complete question in the attached figure

we know that
the distance from a point to line (y-axis) is the perpendicular line against y-axis, which is the absolute value of x-coordinates

in this problem
the point (−1.5, 6)
the
absolute value of x-coordinates is 1.5
hence
the distance is 1.5

therefore

the answer is
the option B) the point (1.5,-3)
Which of the points listed is the same distance from the y-axis as the point (−1.5, 6)?-example-1
