Question

integers, rational numbers, absolute value, and the coordinate plane level 5 can you escape? #1 what is the length of side jp? 1) 2 units 2) 3 units 3) 4 units 4) 1 unit

Explanation:

Step1: Find coordinates of J and P

Coordinates of \(J(-6,4)\) and \(P(-4,4)\)

Step2: Use distance formula for horizontal line (since \(y -\)coordinates are same)

Distance \(d=\vert x_2 - x_1\vert\), here \(x_1=-6\), \(x_2 = -4\), so \(d=\vert-4-(-6)\vert=\vert-4 + 6\vert=\vert2\vert = 2\)

Answer:

1. 2 units
