Question

What is the distance between each pair of numbers?
-a and 0
(I NEED MASSIVE HELP)

Answer 1

`\left|a\right|`

Explanation:

Write the distance formula

`\left|x_2-x_1\right|`

Find the distance

Find the distance between
`None(-1,a) and ():`
`\left|a\right|`

I hope this helps you

:)

Answer 2

The distance between the pair of numbers is the absolute value of
`a`, or
`|a|`.

Explanation:

Use the distance formula:
`d=|x_2-x_1|`. The
`x`s represent points one and two. Point one is
`-a`, and point two is 0. Plug these into the equation, then solve:

`d=|x_2-x_1|\\d=|(0)-(-a)|\\d=|a|`

Therefore, the distance between the pair of numbers is the absolute value of
`a`, or
`|a|`.
