Question

Point Q is located at (-4, 6). Point R is located at (8, 6) What is the distance from point Q to point R?

Answer 1

12 units

Explanation:

Notice that as we go from Q to R, x (the horizontal distance) increases by 12 and y (the vertical distance) does not change. Thus, the distance between the two points is merely the horizontal distance, 12 units.
