Question

1. what is the number of units between (-3, -6) and (-3, -1)? 4. what is the distance between the bank and hiroto’s house on the map? (each unit represents 1 mile.)

Explanation:

Step1: Identify the formula for distance between two points with same x - coordinate

For two points \((x_1,y_1)\) and \((x_2,y_2)\) where \(x_1 = x_2\), the distance \(d=\vert y_2 - y_1\vert\). Here, the two points are \((-3,-6)\) and \((-3,-1)\), so \(x_1=x_2 = - 3\), \(y_1=-6\) and \(y_2=-1\).

Step2: Calculate the distance

\(d=\vert-1-(-6)\vert=\vert-1 + 6\vert=\vert5\vert = 5\)

Answer:

5

Since there is no information about the locations of the bank and Hiroto's house for question 4, we can only answer question 3. If you provide more details about question 4 such as the coordinates or relative positions of the bank and the house, it can be solved in a similar way.
