Answer:

  • 7.5 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance is always positive and is same as the absolute value of subtraction of the two numbers on the line.

This can be shown as:

  • |-3/2 - 6| =
  • |-1.5 - 6| =
  • |-7.5| =
  • 7.5

or

  • | 6 - (-3/2)| =
  • |6 + 1.5| =
  • |7.5| =
  • 7.5
