Question

On a coordinate plane, point F is located at points 3, 7 and point G is located at points 9,7. whats the distance in units between point F and point G? Enter the answer in the box.

Answer 1

6 units

Explanation:

since the y- coordinates of both points are 7 then the horizontal distance between the points is the absolute value of the difference in the x- coordinates , that is

d = | 9 - 3 | = | 6 | = 6 units , or

d = | 3 - 9 | = | - 6 | = 6 units
