Question

Describe in detail how you would create a number line with the following points: 3, 2.25, the opposite of 4, and − (−1fraction of one-half ). Please be sure to describe on which tick marks each point is plotted and how many tick marks are between each integer. It may help for you to draw this number line by hand on a sheet of paper first.

PLS HELPPP

Answer 1

Answer: on a number line, start writing -4 on the left side then write -3, 2, 1, and then 0, then write 1, 2, 3, 4 on the right side of 0. Plot a dot on -4(the opposite of 4), a dot on 3, and do a dot that is slightly infront of the number 2, but not too close to the number 3. I think the last point is -1/4? So right infront of 0 and inbetween -1 plot a point for -1/4.

Answer 2

I got you bro-

. Start by drawing a horizontal line on a sheet of paper. This line represents the number line.

2. Mark an integer, such as 0, in the center of the line. This will serve as the reference point.

3. Determine the number of tick marks between each integer. Let's say we want to place 4 tick marks between each integer for this example.

4. Label the tick marks on the right side of 0 with positive integers (1, 2, 3, ...), and label the tick marks on the left side of 0 with negative integers (-1, -2, -3, ...). This establishes the order of the numbers on the number line.

5. Plot the point 3 on the number line. Since 3 is a positive integer, you would locate it three tick marks to the right of 0.

6. Plot the point 2.25 on the number line. This point falls between the integers 2 and 3. To plot it, divide the distance between the tick marks between 2 and 3 into four equal parts, and place a mark at the appropriate fraction along that distance.

7. Plot the opposite of 4, which is -4. Since -4 is a negative integer, you would locate it four tick marks to the left of 0.

8. Plot the point -(-1/2). Simplifying this expression gives us 1/2. Since 1/2 is a positive fraction, you would locate it one tick mark to the right of 0, halfway between 0 and 1.
