Answer 2

Answer:

The distance of the point P (−3, −4) from the x-axis is 4 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

If coordinates of points defined as P(a,b), then

1. The distance of then point P(a,b) from the x-axis is |b| units.

2. The distance of the point P(a,b) from the y-axis is |a| units.

The given point is P(-3,-4).

Here, the x-coordinate is -3 and y-coordinate is -4. It means a=-3 and b=-4. So,

1. The distance of the point P(-3,-4) from the x-axis = |-4| = 4 units.

2. The distance of the point P(-3,-4) from the y-axis is = |-3| = 3 units.

Therefore, the required answer is 4 units.

hope it helped uhh...
