Answer 1

Answer: ST=16

Explanation:

i think this the right answer but I don't know for sure.

S= -2 T= 14

ST+ |-2-14|

= |-16|

ST= 16

Answer 2

16 units

Explanation:

Given,

In the number line,

Point S is on -2,

While, point T is at 14,

Since, when we find the distance between two point in the number line then we find the positive difference between the points,

Thus, the distance between S and T = | -2 - 14 | = | - 16 | = 16 units
