The given numbers are coordinates of points a, b, and c, respectively, on a coordinate line. 9, 8, -5
find the distance d (a, b)

distance d(A,B)=1

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that if we have given two point and x_{2},y_{2})[/tex] we have to find the distance between two points d(A, B)

then we can use following formula

d(A,B) =[tex]\sqrt((x_{2}-x_{1})^2+(y_{2}-y_{1})^2)\\=\sqrt((9-8)^2\\=\sqrt(1)\\=1

step-by-step explanation:

d would equal 12
