which of the following correctly uses absolute value to show the distance between -50 and 12?

A. |-50 - 12| = |-62| = -62 units
B. |-50 + 12| = |-38| = 38 units
C. |-50 + 12| = |-38| = -38
D. |-50 - 12| = |-62| = 62​

Respuesta :

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance can't be negative (especially after using absolute value) so A and C are cancelled.

When you are trying to find the distance between the 2, you want to subtract to see how far they are away from each other.

That means B is cancelled and D is the only answer you have left :)
