Question

Two numbers have a distance of 5 units from 0 on a number line. The numbers can be graphed on the number line as points A and B.

Drag and drop the labels to the correct positions on the number line.

Answer 1

Drag A to negative 5 and B to positive 5.

Answer 2

Answer:

Point A is labeled at x=-5 and point B is labeled at x=5.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that two numbers have a distance of 5 units from 0 on a number line.

Let the unknown number be x.

Case 1: x is 5 units less than 0.

$x=0-5$

$x=-5$

The point A is labeled at x=-5.

Case 2: x is 5 units more than 0.

$x=0+5$

$x=5$

The point B is labeled at x=5.
