Question

d the distance between each pair of point

1. (-6.1, -8.4) and (-6.1, -4.2)

-

= -
= units

Explanation:

Step1: Identify the coordinates

The two points are \((-6.1,-8.4)\) and \((-6.1,-4.2)\). Since the \(x -\)coordinates are the same (\(x=-6.1\) for both points), we use the formula for the distance between two points with the same \(x -\)coordinate: \(d=\vert y_2 - y_1\vert\). Here, \(y_1=-8.4\) and \(y_2 = - 4.2\).

Step2: Calculate the distance

Answer:

\(\vert-8.4\vert-\vert-4.2\vert=8.4 - 4.2 = 4.2\) units.
