Starting from the same place, Ryu walks due west and Samantha walks due east.


On the number line, 0 represents their starting point, negative values represent the distance traveled west and positive values represent the distance traveled east. All values are given in feet.




A number line with a point for Samantha at coordinate 40 and a point for Ryu at coordinate -160.




How many feet apart are Ryu and Samantha on the number line?

Respuesta :

40 - (-160) = 200


Ryu and Samantha are 200 feet apart on the number line.


Hope this helped! :)

Answer:

Just took the test from K-12 and the answer was 600ft

Step-by-step explanation:

  • There are 10 tik-marks between 600 and 0 on the numberline in this problem. 600/10 = 60. Therefore, each tik-mark represents 60 feet.
  • There are 10 tik marks between samantha and Ryu's points. 60 * 10 = 600.
  • There is no need to include a negitive sybol because we are finding the distance. (distance is never negative)

       There you go, as stated above the answer would be 600ft.
