Question

A number is k units to the left of 0 on a number line. Describe the location of it's opposite.

if you don't know the answer, don't answer at all

Answer 1

k is a variable . you can place any number in place of it

k= -3/5 lies on the left side

but if k is positive then it will lie on the right side of 0.

(negative in left side and positive in right side )

Answer 2

Answer:

(k,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

The original point is (-k,0). Since k is to the left of 0, its negative. And 0 is taken as the ordinate because its said that k is to the left of 0 and that is only possible if 0  is the ordinate.

The opposite point of that would be (k,0) since v are just taking a mirror image of the point along the y-axis.
