Respuesta :

Given

Starting at 0 on a number line, a point is moved 21 units, then 53 units, then 721 units, and finally negative-50 units.

To find:

Where has the point moved to?

Explanation:

It is given that,

Starting at 0 on a number line, a point is moved 21 units, then 53 units, then 721 units, and finally negative-50 units.

That implies,

Since starting at 0 on a number line, a point is moved 21 units.

Then,

[tex]0+21=21[/tex]

Also, then 53 units.

Then,

[tex]21+53=74[/tex]

Also, then 721 units.

Then,

[tex]74+721=795[/tex]

And, finally negative-50 units.

Then,

[tex]\begin{gathered} 795+(-50)=795-50 \\ =745 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Hence, the point is moved to 745.
