Kerri correctly calculated the distance between point S (–3428) and point T (286) on a number line. What value did Kerri find for the distance? A. –3714 B. –3142 C. 3142 D. 3714

First, rule out the ones that are not correct. A distance can never be negative, so the answers are not A or B.

Now, what do you subtract?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

To find the distance between the two, subtract 268-(-3428). You get 3714.
