Question

(-3, 1) and (2, 1) Different quadrants, so add the absolute values.Horizontal distance from (-3, 1) to y-axis: | __ | = ___Horizontal distance from (2, 1) to y-axis: | __ | = ___Distance from (-3, 1) to (2, 1) is ___ + ___ = ___ .

Answer 1

Here, we want to make additions

Firstly, we want the horizontal distance from (-3,1) to y-axis

We take the x-coordinate into consideration;

`\begin{gathered} =\text{ (-3-0) = }-3 \\ \text{can also be (0-(-3)) = }3 \end{gathered}`

But since we are considering the absolute value, we only take the positive and it is equal to 1

Secondly, we want the horizontal distance from (2,1) to y-axis

This is same as above, considering the x-axis value, we hav

Lstly, we
