The number that is greater: −3 or 5
What is 5?
The number that is 3 units to the right of 0
What is 3?
The absolute value of −6
What is 6?
|-6| = 6
True or false: 4 > −2
What is true?
The x-coordinate in the point (3, −2)
What is 3?
Put these numbers in order from least to greatest: −4, 2, −1, 0
What is -4, -1, 0, 2?
The number that is 5 units to the left of 2
What is -3?
The absolute value of 4
What is 4?
|4| = 4
An inequality that compares −3 and 1.
What is -3 < 1?
OR
What is 1 > -3?
The quadrant that the point (−4, 5) is located in
What is Quadrant 2?
The opposite of −7
What is 7?
The number that is exactly halfway between −6 and 2
What is -2?
The number that has the greater absolute value: −9 or 7
What is the absolute value of -9?
|-9| > 7, because |-9| = 9
The symbol makes the following statement true:
−5 ___ −2
(>, <, or =)
The point below that is located in Quadrant III
A) (2, −3)
B) (−2, −3)
C) (−2, 3)
What is Answer B) (−2, −3)?
The number that is farther from 0: −6 or 4. Explain your reasoning.
What is -6?
Explanation: Because -6 is 6 units away from 0, whereas 4 is only 4 units away from 0.
The ending point on a number line if you start at −3 and move 7 units to the right
What is 4?
The possible values of a number that has an absolute value of 5
What is -5 and 5?
The option below that makes this inequality true:
x > −1
A) −2
B) 0
C) −1
What is Answer B?
B) 0
The distance in units between (−3, 0) and (2, 0)
What is 5 units?
The new position of a submarine that starts at −120 feet, and then rises 45 feet.
What is -75 feet?
All possible values of a point that is located 4 units from 0
What is 4 and -4?
The distance between these two points on a number line: -3 and 5. Explain using absolute value.
What is 8?
Explanation: When we count from 0 to -3, the distance is 3 units. This is known as the absolute value of -3.
Then we need to count from 0 to 5, which is 5 units apart.
3 units + 5 units = 8 units total.
An inequality that describes this situation:
“The temperature is at least −4 degrees.”
What is: x ≥ −4
x = temperature
The distance in units between the points (4, −2) and (4, 5)
What is 7 units?
