<span>Every point went up 4 units and left 3 units.
</span><span>Point X on the triangle moved up 4 and left 3.
That formed a right triangle with legs 4 and 3.
The distance point X moved to point X', d, is the hypotenuse of the right triangle.

When you take the absolute value of this equation, the answer should actually be 3.
You should solve the what’s inside first. If the answer is negative, then the absolute value will make it positive.
For example
|1-5|=|-4|=4
