Answer:

the distance between two numbers and on the number line is . Note that the distance between two numbers is always positive, no matter the order. But the difference can be positive or negative, depending on the order.

Step-by-step explanation:

the distance between two points on a line is abs(x1-x2) which is a symmetric function abs(y)=abs(-y) so abs(x1-x2)=abs(-(x1-x2))=abs(x2-x1) so the order does not matter since you take abs after the subtraction.

hopes this helps

and mark me brainliest if it does

If P is a point of symmetry, click on the graphic to find the figure that is symmetrical by P.
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

The third figure is the answer (Look to the attached figure

Step-by-step explanation:

* The point of symmetry means

- If a figure or graph can be rotated 180° about a point P

 and end up looking identical to the original, then P is a point

 of symmetry

- The same distance from the central point

  but in the opposite direction.

* Lets look to the four answers

- In the 3rd figure first line up can be rotated 180° about a point P

 and end up looking identical to the second line down, then P

 is a point of symmetry

- The same distance from the point  p

  but in the opposite direction.

* The figure show the answer
