Answer:

When we write a point, we do it like this: (x, y), that means, the first number  

refers to the x-axis component and the second one to the y-axis.

We have the point (-3,2), so x = -3 and y = -2, so if we need to calculate the shortest distance from it to the x-axis, we only need to pick the x (which is -3)

The distamce from -3 to 0 is |0-3| = 3.

The correct answer is b
