Which of the following correctly uses absolute value to show the distance between -60 and 13? (5 points)

l-60 – 13| = |-73| = 73 units

I-60 13 = |-73| = -73 units

l-60 + 13| = |-47| = 47 units

I-60 + 13| = |-47| = -47 units

Respuesta :

Answer:

l-60 – 13| = |-73| = 73 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Required

Distance between -60 and 13

Using absolute values, distance is calculated as:

[tex]Distance = |Start - End|[/tex]

Where

[tex]Start = -60[/tex]

[tex]End = 13[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]Distance = |-60 - 13|[/tex]

[tex]Distance = |-73|[/tex]

Take absolute value of -73

[tex]Distance = 73[/tex]

Hence, option A answers the question
