Question

Jaya goes 50 km towards the east from point A to the point B. From B, she moves 25 Km towards the west along the Same road. If the distance towards east is represented by a positive integer then,how will you represent the distance travelled towards west ? How will you represent her final position from A ?​

Answer 1

Answer:

-10

Expanation:

Distances travelled towards east from point A will be represented by positive integer i.e. +20 km.

Distance travelled towards the west from point B will be represented by negative integer, i.e., —30 km.

Final position of Rita from A

= 20 km – 30 km = – 10 km

Hence, the required position of Rita will be presented by a negative number, i.e., -10.
