Question

Points Y and Z are the same distance from point X on a number line. The coordinate of point X is –7 and the coordinate of point Y is –1.

What is the coordinate of point Z?

Answer 1

hello again

Answer 2

Hi :) So im guessing that Y and Z are a line and that X is the midpoint

Answer 3

i guess so

Answer 4

Lol jk this is actually easier than it seems
First find the distance between X and Y

Answer 5

ok

Answer 6

So what is it?

Answer 7

ok they are the same y=-1 so z has to equal 1

Answer 8

i think im wrong

Answer 9

No find the distance from -7 to -1
So it you were to count from a number line you would count how many spaces

Answer 10

oh ok

Answer 11

6 units away

Answer 12

is that right

Answer 13

yes now add 6 to both X and Y

Answer 14

ok

Answer 15

it -12

Answer 16

-12?

Answer 17

no -2

Answer 18

Shouldnt it be -13 and/or 5

Answer 19

no you said to add 6+ y=-1+ X=-7 and that equal -2

Answer 20

hello

Answer 21

is anyone there

Answer 22

hello

Answer 23

i cant take this anymore bye

Answer 24

-7 - (-1) = -7 + 1 = 6.....6 spaces between X and Y.
So if Y is 6 spaces from X, then Z is also 6 spaces from X.



I can't draw on this thing...lol

X = -7
Y = -1
Z = -13
