Question

The following numbers are shown on the number line with letter labels: 0.8, −1 1/2 , −1/4 , 2, −1.99 . Which of the numbers is located at point D?

Answer 1

To identify which number is located at point D, we need to examine the numbers you've provided: 0.8, −1 1/2 (which is -1.5), −1/4 (which is -0.25), 2, and −1.99.

To determine which one corresponds to point D, you would typically refer to a visual representation of the number line, but since I don't have that visual, I can help with a brief analysis of their positions relative to each other:

- -1.99 is very close to -2
- -1.5 is also to the left of -1 and corresponds to -1 1/2
- -0.25 is to the right of -1 and to the left of 0
- 0.8 is to the right of 0 and left of 1
- 2 is the farthest to the right on the number line

Given the context of your question and if point D has a specific location associated with it, you can compare the labels to locate point D on the number line. If you describe the position of point D relative to the other points or provide additional context, I can help you identify which number corresponds to point D.
