A bee flies 25 meters north of the hive, then 10 meters east, 5 meters west, and 10 meters south. How far north and east of the hive is the bee now? Explain how you calculated your answer.

25 meters north = 25 meters north

10 meters east = 10 meters east

5 meters west = - 5 meters east

10 meters south = - 10 meters north

Add up all the north components: (25 - 10) = 15 meters north of the hive

Add up all the east components: (10 - 5) = 5 meters east of the hive
