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?

40 - (-160) = 200


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


Hope this helped! :)
