Question

Which two numbers on the number line have an absolute value of 1.75?

Select the location of both numbers on the number line.

Answer 1

Answer:

-1.75 and 1.75

Step-by-step explanation:

The absolute value is the distance that certain number has from it's position to the number 0.

There are only two numbers that have a distance of 1.75 to the number 0: -1.75 and 1.75.

The location on the graph must be marked on the line that is between -1.5 and -2, and between 1.5 and 2.

Answer 2

Answer:

The absolute value of a number is the distance of the number from zero on the line. The line has always values increasing from left to right. Right side is greater than the left side.

Every absolute value has two numbers on the line like absolute value of 1 has two points, one is 1 and the other is -1. Hence the absolute value of 1.75 also has two numbers on the line one is 1.75 and other is -1.75.

So the point 1.75 can be found on the right side of zero at a distance of 1.75 and in the middle of point 1.5 and 2. Again -1.75 point can be found at the left side of zero at a distance of 1.75 and in the middle of -1.5 and -2.
