Answer:

a) 5.9

b) 4.2

Explanation:

Plot the data points on the number line (see attached).

Part (a)


\begin{aligned}\textsf{Distance between Ben and Kloee} & = \sf \left| Ben - Kloee \right|\\& = \sf \left|-2.65-3(1)/(4)\right|\\& = \sf \left|-2.65-3.25\right|\\& = \sf \left|-5.9\right|\\& = \sf 5.9\end{aligned}

Part (b)


\begin{aligned}\textsf{Distance between Middle school and Football field} & = \sf \left| Middle\:school-Football\:field\right|\\& = \sf \left| 1.5-5.7\right|\\& = \sf \left| -4.2 \right|\\& = \sf 4.2\end{aligned}
