Answer:
12 units
Step-by-step explanation:
B - A = (7, 8) - (-5, 8) = (7 -(-5), 8 -8) = (12, 0)
The distance is then ...
d = √(12² + 0²) = √12²
d = 12
_____
Of course, when you graph these points (actually or mentally), you can see that they are 12 units apart on the line y=8. You don't need to do any fancy calculation to discover the difference between -5 and 7.

So, the easiest thing to do here is to add up the numbers of each option to find the number most similar to the solution of (-4/5)(3/5)(-6/7)(5/6) which is approximately equal to 0.34.
The product of expression A is -0.25
The product of expression B is 0.50
The product of expression C is 3
The product of expression D is -0.05625
So, first of all, we can rule out choices A and D because they are both negative, whereas 0.34 is not. Now, we just have B and C, and clearly, B is much closer to 0.34 than C is, so B is the correct answer. I hope this helps! :)
