Answer:

the two examples are different because they not traveling in the same direction but still they travel the same distance within the same amount of time and will most likely lead to different areas

Answer:

We can solve this by giving the velocities opposite signs.

Step-by-step explanation:

Traveling west at 5 miles per hour can be given a positive sign and traveling east is opposite to west on a straight line, so we can denote that with a negative sign.

Hence, we can distinguish the velocities without using the words "east" and "west" by giving the velocities opposite signs.
