Question

A number line ranging from negative five to five with arrows at both ends shows 0 labeled in the middle. Points upper A through upper D are plotted from left to right. Points upper A and upper B are located in between negative 2 and negative 1. Point upper A is approximately half-way between the first and second tick mark to the left of zero. Point upper B is just beyond the tick mark to the left of zero. Points upper C and upper D are in between positive 1 and positive 2. Point upper C is just beyond the first tick mark to the right of zero. Point D is closer to the second tick mark to the right of zero.

The number line has the following numbers: 134, −1.5, −1.1, 1.03. Put the numbers in the correct order, A–D.

Answer 1

To determine the correct order of the points A, B, C, and D on the number line, we need to analyze the descriptions and the values provided.

1. Points A and B:

   • Both points are between -2 and -1.
   • Point A is approximately halfway between the first and second tick mark to the left of zero, which suggests it is a little more than -1.5 but less than -1.
   • Point B is just beyond the tick mark to the left of zero, implying it is slightly larger than -1.

2. Points C and D:

   • Both points are between 1 and 2.
   • Point C is just beyond the first tick mark to the right of zero, which indicates it is above 1 but less than 1.1.
   • Point D is closer to the second tick mark to the right of zero, suggesting it is above 1.5 but less than 2.

Now, let's determine where the values provided fit:

• -1.5: This fits with point A (since it is less than -1.5).
• -1.1: This fits with point B as it is more than -1.5 but less than -1.
• 1.03: This would correspond to point C, as it is a small increment above 1.
• 134: This would correspond to point D, being a significantly larger number (above 1.5) and not fitting the range of points A, B, or C.

Given this arrangement:

• A corresponds to -1.5,
• B corresponds to -1.1,
• C corresponds to 1.03,
• D corresponds to 134.

Thus, the correct order from least to greatest is:

−1.5, −1.1, 1.03, 134

Therefore, the correct response is:

−1.5, −1.1, 1.03, 134
