Write the shortest distance of points a, b, c, and d from the y-axis

Point A: 60

Point B: 60

Point C: 50

Point D: 50

The distance a point is from the y axis is the absolute value of the x-coordinate, because the x-coordinate is how far (and the direction) to go from the y axis.  However, because it also takes into account the direction, we have to find the absolute value of it (so it is positive), since distance has to be positive.
