Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

|-4 + 1| = |-3| = 3

|-4 - 1| = |-5| = 5

The distance is 5, so the second equation should represent the problem.

Answer:

The answer to your question is the letter B

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the distance between -4 and 1 we need to consider the signs of these numbers.

-4 is negative and 1 is positive.

To know the distance we must subtract 1 to -4

                     Distance = | -4 - 1 |       Use absolute value

                                     = | -5|

                                     = 5

Conclusion

The correct choice is the second one.
