Solution

Distance between the graph of equations, say D

D = Distance of co-ordinate on negative side of y axis + Distance of co-ordinate on positive side of y axis

Distance of co-ordinate on negative side of y axis = y = 1 units

Distance of co-ordinate on positive side of y axis = y = 3 units

Therefore, the correct answer is (b).
