What is the distance between -9 and -2 on a number line

7

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between -9 and -2 on a number line is 7. If you check the picture attached, you will find that there are 7 units between -9 and -2.

Another way to calculate this is by subtracting the two numbers (In any order) and then taking the absolute value of the number. Therefore:

-9 - (-2) = -7

Abs(-7) = 7

Also it could be:

-2 - (-9) = 7

Abs(7) = 7

answer: i cant see the picture

step-by-step explanation:

can u take a better picture

hope this !

step-by-step explanation:

d = distance between moon and sun, which in this problem is the hypotenuse of a right triangle.  

the distance y is the side opposite to angle x in the right triangle.   use the definition of the sine function from basic trigonometry.

sin(x) = y/d ⇒

d = y/sin(x)
