Which of the following correctly uses absolute value to show the distance between –70 and 13?

|–70 – 13| = |–83| = –83 units

|–70 – 13| = |–83| = 83 units

|–70 + 13| = |–57| = 57 units

|–70 + 13| = |–57| = –57 units

do you know how to go about the question above?

dobby1 · Answer

let me take a look I might be able to simplify it more

anonymous · Answer

thanks  ^

dobby1 · Answer

It is |–70 + 13| = |–57| = 57 units 

This is because this is the only one of those equations where the ending result is  the actual distance between -70 and 13 which is 57 units

I know I gave the answer but it was really the only way to help you here so I made sure to explain it afterwards but I wish i could helped you find it your self

To find the distance between the points, the values at the points must be subtracted:
Distance = |-70 - 13| = |-83| = 83 units
