(Opposites and Absolute Value MC)
Eight rational numbers are plotted on a number line.
A number line with Point A labeled at negative three halves. Point B is labeled at negative four thirds. Point C is labeled at negative three fourths. Point D is labeled at negative two thirds. Point E is labeled at two thirds. Point F is labeled at three fourths. Point G is labeled at four thirds. Point H is labeled at three halves.
Which of the following is true about opposite numbers?
Point B and Point C are opposite rational numbers because they are the reciprocal of each other.
Point B
and Point F are opposite rational numbers because they are the opposite reciprocals of each other.
Point B and Point E are opposite rational numbers because Point B is farther away from zero than Point E.
Point B and Point G are opposite rational numbers because they are the same distance away from zero.
