)Point A is located at negative 7 over 10 and point B is located at negative 2 over 10. What is the distance between points A and B?


negative 7 over 10 plus negative 2 over 10 = negative 9 over 10; therefore, the distance from A to B is absolute value of negative 9 over 10 equals 9 over 10 units

negative 7 over 10 plus negative 2 over 10 = negative 9 over 10; therefore, the distance from A to B is absolute value of negative 9 over 10 equals negative 9 over 10 units

negative 7 over 10 minus negative 2 over 10 = negative 5 over 10; therefore, the distance from A to B is absolute value of negative 5 over 10 equals 5 over 10 units

negative 7 over 10 minus negative 2 over 10 = negative 5 over 10; therefore, the distance from A to B is absolute value of negative 5 over 10 equals negative 5 over 10 units

Answer:

The correct option is C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given information:

Location of point A = \(-\frac{7}{10}\)

Location of point B = \(-\frac{2}{10}\)

We need to find the distance between points A and B.

Distance between points A and B = Location of point A - Location of point B

\(AB=-\frac{7}{10}-(-\frac{2}{10})\)

\(AB=-\frac{7}{10}+\frac{2}{10}\)

\(AB=\frac{-7+2}{10}\)

\(AB=-\frac{5}{10}\)

Distance can not be negative. So,

\(|AB|=|-\frac{5}{10}|\)

\(|AB|=\frac{5}{10}\)

Negative 7 over 10 minus negative 2 over 10 = negative 5 over 10; therefore, the distance from A to B is absolute value of negative 5 over 10 equals 5 over 10 units.

Therefore, the correct option is C.
