Which expression represents the distance, in units, between the two points?

Answer 1

To determine the distance between two points on a number line, you can use the formula:

\[ \text{Distance} = |a - b| \]

where \( a \) and \( b \) are the coordinates of the two points.

Without the specific points provided in your question, I cannot give you the numerical answer. However, if you have two points, say \( a \) and \( b \) on the number line, you can replace them in the expression \( |a - b| \) to find the distance between them.

Please provide the two specific points if you need assistance with a particular example!
