Question
Find the distance with the help of the number line given below.
d(P, C)
Advertisements
Solution
It is known that the distance between the two points is obtained by subtracting the smaller coordinate from the larger coordinate.
The coordinates of points P and C are −4 and 3 respectively.
But 3 > −4
∴ d (P, C) = 3 − (−4)
∴ d (P, C) = 3 + 4
∴ d (P, C) = 7
