Although the heliocentric model of the solar system was originally proposed by
777dan777 [17]
The appropriate response is Nicolaus Copernicus. The heliocentric model says that the sun is at the focal point of the universe, and the absence of the move of stars intended to them that they were moving around a similar thing the Earth was, or the Sun.

Vertical distance between (-2, -3) and (-2, -12)
GarryVolchara [31]
What I can tell is that they both share the same x coordinate. To help you understand, the horizontal line is from left to right, think of "The sun setting in the horizon.", it is often in the distance as a "left to right" line. So, I hope that helps, this leaves the vertical line as up or down.

With that out of the way, the x-axis lies on the horizontal line, whereas the y-axis lies on the vertical line.

Point coordinates are typically listed as (x, y), so... with that said, to find the distance we'll have to count downwards. As we know, negative x is to the left, negative y is further down, so... -3 to -12 is 9 points away.

Simple method: -3 - 9 = -12, or... -12 - -3 = -12 + 3 = -9.
In other words you get the basic idea, you can also just count, but whatever.

I hope that helps, have a great rest of your day! ^ ^
