Answer: A.) 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following:
Horizontal line y = 5
Point (6, 9)
Distance between point (6, 9) and horizontal line y = 5
For point (6,9) ; x1 = 6, y1 = 9
Horizontal line : y = 5
Hence, distance between the two points will be the difference between the the y values :
y1 - y = 9 - 5 = 4
Hence, the distance between a point (6, 9) and a horizontal line at y = 5 is 4
