Question

17
2. A car moves 17 km north from a point A and then moves 14 km towards south along
the same road. If the distance towards north is represented by a positive integer,
then how will you represent the distance towards south. By which integer will you
represent its final position from A ?
​

Answer 1

Answer:

To answer the first part of the question, if the distance towards north is represented by a positive integer, then the distance towards south will be represented by a negative integer.

Given that it moves 17 km north i.e +17, and then back 14 km south, or -14,

it's final position from A is + 17 - 14 = + 3

You will use + 3 as the integer to represent the final position from A.
