Question

The coordinate of point X on a number line is 5. Find the coordinates of points on the same number line which are 8 units away from X.

Answer 1

Answer:

Correct option is B)

The co-ordinate of a point R on a line is 8, The point S is on the same line which is to the left of R and a distance of 7 units from R.

Co-ordinate of point S=8−7=1

P is the midpoint of segment RS

Co-ordinate of point P = midpoint of Co-ordinate of point S and Co-ordinate of point R

8-1/2= 3.5 ans.
