2 is point___.

OPTIONS FOR 1 & 2 & 3 & 4: A, B, C, D, E, or F

3 answers

To identify the location of each point on the number line:

  • 0.5 falls between 0 (C) and 1 (D). Therefore, 0.5 is point D.

  • −12 is much less than −2 (A), so −12 is point A.

  • −1.4 falls between −2 (A) and −1 (B). Therefore, −1.4 is point B.

  • 2 is exactly at 2 (E). Therefore, 2 is point E.

So, the answers are as follows:

  • 0.5 is point D.
  • −12 is point A.
  • −1.4 is point B.
  • 2 is point E.
whats the answer to 2

The answer to the second question, "−12 is point___," is A.

This is because −12 is much lower than the rest of the points on the number line, and point A represents −2, which is the leftmost point on the provided number line segment.

So, to clarify:

  • −12 is point A.
