Question

Find the length of a segment drawn on a number line with its endpoints at 13 and -46

Answer 1

59

Explanation:

Because you are finding distance on a number line, the answer will be positive (you can't be a negative amount away from something). You can add 13 to 46, each getting to 0. Your answer is 59.

Answer 2

Length = 59

From -46 to 0---------------46

From 0 to 13----------------13

Total ------------------------59 (46=13)
