PLEASE HELP I WILL GIVE YOU 20 POINTS. IF YOU DONT HELP I WILL REPORT YOU, IM NOT TRYING TO BE RUDE.

The Diver: (-6, 3)
The whale: (-7, -6)
The Treasure: (7, 3)

Explain how you know for the questions below.

1. If Captain Sullivan lost his map but he knew the coordinates of the diver and the treasure, how could he find the distance between the diver and the treasure?

Think about how you can use absolute value notation to express the distance between two points on a coordinate graph. For each pair of points below, find the distance between the given points and express your work using absolute value symbols.
(4, 9) and ( –5, 9)
