Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the absolute value to find the difference between the points

6 and 0

distance = | 6 - 0 | = | 6 | = 6 , or

distance = | 0 - 6 | = | - 6 | = 6

-------------------------------------------

the opposite of 6 is - 6

- 6 and 0

distance = | - 6 - 0 | = | - 6 | = 6 , or

distance = | 0 - 6 | = | - 6 | = 6
