Answer: Step-by-step explanation:

In order to answer this question you will need to find 2 distances and then add them to each other.

Begin at -29. How far will you have to move to the right 29 in order to get to 0?

Now how far will you have to more to get from 0 to 100?

Draw an open number line to help you.

_____________________________________________________

-29 0 100

Your first distance is 29. Your second distance is 100. The total distance is 129.
