To find the difference between -362.89 and -(-543.24), we can use the additive inverse.
The additive inverse of a number is the number that, when added to the original number, results in zero. For any number a, its additive inverse is -a.
In this case, the additive inverse of -543.24 is 543.24.
Therefore, -362.89 - (-543.24) is the same as -362.89 + 543.24.
Adding these two numbers together, we get:
-362.89 + 543.24 = 180.35
So, -362.89 - (-543.24) is equal to 180.35.

To determine the distance between -14.22 and -3.74 on a number line, we need to subtract the smaller number from the larger number.
In this case, -3.74 is the larger number and -14.22 is the smaller number.
|-14.22 - (-3.74)| = |-14.22 + 3.74|
Performing the addition:
|-14.22 + 3.74| = |-10.48|
The absolute value of -10.48 is 10.48.
Therefore, the distance between -14.22 and -3.74 on a number line is 10.48.
Hence, the answer is 10.48.
In this case, -3.74 is the larger number and -14.22 is the smaller number.
|-14.22 - (-3.74)| = |-14.22 + 3.74|
Performing the addition:
|-14.22 + 3.74| = |-10.48|
The absolute value of -10.48 is 10.48.
Therefore, the distance between -14.22 and -3.74 on a number line is 10.48.
Hence, the answer is 10.48.

To subtract 28 - (-12), we can use the additive inverse of -12, which is 12.
Therefore, 28 - (-12) becomes 28 + 12:
28 + 12 = 40
So, 28 - (-12) is equal to 40.
Therefore, 28 - (-12) becomes 28 + 12:
28 + 12 = 40
So, 28 - (-12) is equal to 40.

To simplify the expression 16 1/6 + 5/6 - 7 - 4, we first need to convert the mixed number 16 1/6 to an improper fraction.
16 1/6 = (16 * 6 + 1) / 6 = 97/6
Now we can rewrite the expression as:
97/6 + 5/6 - 7 - 4
Combining the fractions, we get:
(97/6 + 5/6) - 7 - 4
= 102/6 - 7 - 4
= 17 - 7 - 4
= 10 - 4
= 6
Therefore, 16 1/6 + 5/6 - 7 - 4 simplifies to 6.
16 1/6 = (16 * 6 + 1) / 6 = 97/6
Now we can rewrite the expression as:
97/6 + 5/6 - 7 - 4
Combining the fractions, we get:
(97/6 + 5/6) - 7 - 4
= 102/6 - 7 - 4
= 17 - 7 - 4
= 10 - 4
= 6
Therefore, 16 1/6 + 5/6 - 7 - 4 simplifies to 6.

The situation that describes opposite quantities that when combined would equal 0 is:
"A hike ascends to 1,300 feet and then descends 1,300 feet."
In this scenario, the hike first goes up 1,300 feet and then goes down 1,300 feet. The ascent of 1,300 feet is canceled out by the descent of 1,300 feet, resulting in a total change of 0.
