The number line shows the distance in meters of two birds, A and B, from a worm located at point X: A horizontal number line extends from negative 3 to positive 3. The point labeled as A is at negative 2.5, the point 0 is labeled as X, and the point labeled B is at 2.5.

Write an expression using subtraction to find the distance between the two birds. (5 points)

Show your work and solve for the distance using additive inverses.

The distance between the two birds is 2.5 - (-2.5), or 5.0 units in total.

Step-by-step explanation:

stew reads at the fastest rate of 265 words per minute.

step-by-step explanation:

it's a given that felicia reads at 260 word per minute and on connie's graph we can see that she reads 200 words per minute. since stew's table tells us that he read 795 in 3 minutes, we can divide 795 by 3 to find out how many words he reads per minute.

795/3 = 265

stew reads 265 words per minute - he reads at the fastest rate since felecia reads at 260 words per minute and connie reads at 200 words per minute.

stew (265) > felecia (260) > connie (200)

because they could drop even lower..
