Question

find the distance between c and d on the number line below.
-12 -11 -10 -9 -8 -7 -6 -5 -4 -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12
distance:

Explanation:

Step1: Identify coordinates of C and D

C is at \( x = 2 \), D is at \( x = 8 \).

Step2: Calculate distance

Distance between two points on number line is \( |x_D - x_C| \). So \( |8 - 2| = 6 \).

Answer:

6
