We will represent the distance travelled towards west with negative integer.

Distance travelled towards east = 20\ km

Distance travelled towards west = 30\ km

Distance travelled from A = [20+(-30)]\ km

-10\ km

As the distance is negative, so final position of Rita from A is towards the west direction.
