S is in negative territory. So it is going to take you a distance to get to 0 and move further right to T.

You can do this without a formula just by adding 2 to get to zero and then 14 more to get to T. The distance between S and T is 14 + 2 = 16.

Now we should develop some kind of formula for these questions. When one point is on one side of zero on the number line and the other point is on the other side of zero then the formula for distance is

distance (as a formula for this question) = abs(S) + abs(T)

Distance = abs(-2) + abs(14) = 2 + 14 = 16

When both point are on the same side of zero then the formula becomes

Distance= abs(abs(S) - abs(T) )

For example if S = -2 and T = - 9

Then the distance = abs( abs(-2) - abs(-9) ) = abs(2 - 9) = abs(-7) = 7

If you have not taken abs value, then just take the answer that I have given above.

The distance between S and T :

|-2| + 14

= 2 + 14

= 16

Sidana [21]

We are tasked to solve for the number of ways the 8 students be competing for the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th voilin chair in the schools orchestra. The number of ways if can only be filled is though the formula used in number counting, that is

8x7x6x5

Therefore, there are 1680 ways

crimeas [40]

Solution: The standard deviation is used in conjunction with the mean to numerically describe distributions that are bell shaped. The mean measures the center of the distribution, while the standard deviation measures the spread of the distribution.

In normal distribution (bell shaped distribution) , the mean and standard deviation are used to describe its distribution. The mean measures the center of the distribution, while the standard deviation takes care of the spread of the distribution.

The mean of the normal distribution is $\mu$ and the standard deviation is $\sigma$
