Answer:

Distance = abs(-1700)

Distance = 1700 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

NYC is located East of Los Angels.

The Airplane flies from Los Angeles to the left direction from NYC.

Which is negative direction.

Therefore, distance = -1700

Here the distance cannot be negative even though if it flies in negative direction.

Therefore, we use the absolute value.

The absolute value of a number is always positive.

So, distace = abs( -1700)

Distance = 1700 miles.

Hope this will help you understand the concept.

Thank you.
