Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the distance formula,

⇒ d = √ ( x 1 − x 2 ) ^2 + ( y 1 − y 2 )^ 2

we can plug in our points,

⇒ P 1 = ( −6,1)

⇒ P 2 = ( -3,1 )

and solve for the distance:

⇒ d = √ (( x 1 − x 2 ) ^2 + ( y 1 − y 2 ) ^2)

⇒ d = √((-6-(-3))^2+(1-1)^2)

⇒ d = √((-6+3)^2)

⇒ d = √(-3)^2

⇒ d = √ 9

⇒ d = 3
