Question

Which shows how to find the horizontal distance between (3, 4) and (8, 4)? ]

A. Subtract y-values: 4 – 4 = 0 units. B. Add y-values 4 + 4 = 8 units.
C. Subtract x-values: 8 – 3 = 5 units. D. Add x-values: 8 + 3 = 11 units.

Answer 1

the answer is c because they are at the same point on the y axis so the only difference is on the x axis

Answer 2

C.Subtract x- vlaues 8-3=5 units

Explanation:

We are given that two points (3,4) and (8,4)

We have to find that which shows how to find the horizontal distance between (3,4) and (8,4).

`x_1=3,x_2=8,y_1=4,y_2=4`

We have to find the horizontal distance

Horizontal distance is the difference of two x-values.

Therefore, horizontal distance=8-3=5 units

Hence, Option C is true.

Answer:C.Subtract x- vlaues 8-3=5 units
