This video tutorial covers the distance and midpoint formulas on both a number line and a coordinate plane. It begins with an introduction to the concepts, emphasizing that distance is always positive. The video then provides detailed examples of calculating distance and midpoint on a number line, using absolute values and averages. It transitions to the coordinate plane, explaining how to apply the distance and midpoint formulas to ordered pairs. The tutorial concludes with advanced problems, including finding missing endpoints and solving polynomial equations, reinforcing the concepts with practical examples.

What is always true about the distance between any two points?

• It can be negative.

• It is always positive.

• It depends on the direction.

• It can be zero.
