Question

Find the distance with the help of the number line given below.

d (Q, B)

Sum
Advertisements

Solution

It is known that the distance between the two points is obtained by subtracting the smaller co-ordinate from the larger co-ordinate.

The co-ordinates of points Q and B are −5 and 2 respectively.

But 2 > −5

∴ d (Q, B) = 2 − (−5)

∴ d (Q, B) = 2 + 5

∴ d (Q, B) = 7
