The vertical distance between two points can be found by subtracting the smaller value from the larger value.

In this case, if you have points -3 and -12, the vertical distance between them would be:

Vertical Distance = |-12 - (-3)| = |-12 + 3| = | -9| = 9 units

So, the vertical distance between -3 and -12 is 9 units.
