Answer:

distance = 8

Step by step solved:

To find the distance between two points in a plane, we can use the distance formula:

distance = √[(x₂ - x₁)² + (y₂ - y₁)²]

where (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) are the coordinates of the two points.

In this case, the two points are (9, 3) and (1, 3), so we can plug in the values:

distance = √[(1 - 9)² + (3 - 3)²]
distance = √[(-8)² + 0²]
distance = √64
distance = 8

Rounding to the nearest tenth, the distance between the points (9, 3) and (1, 3) is 8 units.
