If one could say that the number line "originates" somewhere, where do you think it would be? What number?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

b

OpenStudy (anonymous):

idk

OpenStudy (lncognlto):

You'd be right. :)

HanAkoSolo (jamierox4ev3r):

you are correct! 0 tends to be known as the point of origin

OpenStudy (debbieg):

Yes, origin of number line is x=0 Origin of coordinate plane is x=0 and y=0

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok thx

HanAkoSolo (jamierox4ev3r):

all the time tho because the origin is corresponding with zero

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Which is a true statement? A. –15 > –5 B. –4 > 0 C. –12 < –3 D. 2 < –5

HanAkoSolo (jamierox4ev3r):

@peacey there is no secret magical process in order to find the origin..... just know that zero is the point of origin

OpenStudy (lncognlto):

Numbers to the right of a number line are always greater than those on the left.

OpenStudy (lncognlto):

So looking at the numbers on the line, the one on the right is greater.

OpenStudy (lncognlto):

Nope, its not b, unfortunately :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

c

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sorry

HanAkoSolo (jamierox4ev3r):

it would help to plot all these points on a numberline|dw:1377775834081:dw|

OpenStudy (lncognlto):

Yep, C is correct! :)

thx
