Question:

In moving from A(3, 4) to D(7, 1), what distance has been covered along the x-axis? What about the distance along the y-axis? [Page No. 9]

Answer: Verified

The horizontal distance is 4 units and the vertical distance is 3 units.

Horizontal distance = |7 - 3| = 4 units

Vertical distance = |4 - 1| = 3 units

So, moving from A to D, you go 4 units horizontally and 3 units vertically.
