Question

Points Q, R, S, and T are shown on the number line. What is the distance between point Q and point S on the number line?

A) 2 units
B) 4 units
C) 6 units
D) 7 units

Answer 1

The answer is 6. If you subtract (2)-(-4), make sure to add parentheses, you get 6 so the answer is 6 units

Answer 2

C) 6 units



Point Q is at -4, so to get to Point S, which is at 2, you have to jump 6 units to get from Q to S.
