Question

Find the distance between the points (3, -5) and (6, -5).

Answer 1

0 (i think??)

Explanation:

use the equation to find the slope:

y2 - y1/ x2 - x1 or y1 - y2/x1 - x2

sooo

(3, -5) (6, -5)

-5 - (-5) / 3 - 6

-5 + 5/ -3

0

Answer 2

3

Explanation:

The y-values of both points is -5. This means that the line between the points is a horiztonal line. Therefore the distance between the points is simply the difference between the x-values: 6 - 3 = 3
