The number of units between Brian's house and Sue's house.
Solution
Both Brian and Sue live on the "street" x=-7, so the distance between their houses is the distance between -2 on that street and +9 on that street. We always consider distance to be positive, so it doesn't matter whether we start at Brian's house and go -11 units to Sue's house, or start at Sue's house and go +11 units to Brian's house. Either way, we travel 11 units.
_____
"Displacement" is another matter. That has a sign associated with it and there is always a reference direction that is positive. Movement in the opposite direction results in a negative displacement. "Distance" is always positive.
