Question

Which number will we reach ,if we move:
4 units to the left of 3 on the number line
5 units to the right of -11 on the number line

Answer 1

Answer:

-1

-6

Step-by-step explanation:

we will move left of 3 in number line

we will move right of -11 in number line

Answer 2

(a) If we move 4 units to the left of 3 on the number line, we reach -1.

(b) If we move 5 units to the right of -11 on the number line, we reach -6.

• The number line allows us to plot numbers in order of their ascending or descending order. Every point on a number line corresponds to a real number.
• Numbers lying to the left of a particular number on the number line are smaller than the number and are achieved by subtracting the distance from the particular number.
• On the other hand, numbers lying to the right of a particular number on the number line are greater than the number and are achieved by adding the distance t the particular number.
• Hence, moving 4 units left of 3 on the number line, we arrive at 3 - 4 = -1.
• Also, moving 5 units to the right of -11 on the number line, we arrive at -11 + 5 = -6.
