QuestionCalculate the distance between -0.7 and -10.6.

Studdy Solution

STEP 1

Assumptions1. We are given two points on the number line, -0.7 and -10.6. The distance between two points on a number line is the absolute difference between the two points.

STEP 2

We calculate the distance between two points on a number line using the formula $Distance = |Point1 - Point2|$

STEP 3

Now, plug in the given values for Point1 and Point2 to calculate the distance.
$Distance = |-0.7 - (-10.6)|$

STEP 4

implify the expression inside the absolute value.
$Distance = |-0.7 +10.6|$

STEP 5

Calculate the value inside the absolute value.
$Distance = |9.9|$

STEP 6

The absolute value of9.9 is just9.9, so the distance between -0. and -10.6 is9.9 units.
The distance between -0. and -10.6 is9.9 units.
