Question

The coordinate of point A on number line is 5. Find the coordinates of the points on the same number line which are 13 units away from Point A?

​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The coordinates of points on the same number line which is 13 units away from A can be 18 or -8.

As it is not specified in the question that the number is 13 units away from which side.

So we will consider both cases:

Case1: On the right side.

To get the value of the coordinate on the right side we just add the given number with 13

SO the coordinate is

5+13 = 18

Case2: On the left side.

To get the value of the coordinate on the left side we just the subtract 13 from the given number.

SO the coordinate is

5-13 = -8

Answer 2

Answer:

(18,0) or( 0,18)

if 5 lie on x axis then it (18,0)

if 5 lies on the yax is then it is( 0,18)

Hope it is correct
