    Answer:

    | j – p | = 3

    Step-by-step explanation:

    If the difference is 3 inches, then the equation should be equal to 3.

    Then, j – p needs to be put into the absolute value bars to represent the difference between the 2 heights, so that will be | j – p |

    Combine these:

    | j – p| = 3 will be the absolute value equation representing the heights
