Answer:

5 units

Subtract -6 and -1, and you get -5. -5 can't be the answer since we are asked to find the distance, so it is the absolute value of -5, 5.

Answer:

D) 6 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Point A is 5 units away from 0 (the middle)

Point B is 1 unit away from 0

5 + 1 = 6

Distance between two points cannot be negative
