Question

What is the distance between (-6,2) and (8,10) on a coordinate grid

Answer 1

Answer: 14 right and 8 up, or (14, 8)

Explanation:

To find the distance, you can subtract or add numbers.

So from (-6, 2) to 0, I have to move right 6 spaces to get (0, 2).

Then, I must move 8 to the right to get (8, 2).

From here, I continue to move up 8 since we want to get to (8,10). So in all, you should move 14 spaces to the right and 8 up (14, 8).
