Suppose A and B are points on the number line. If AB = 8 and B lies at −7, where could A be located?

Sagot :

The value of A is A(1,-15) and the distance between AB is 8 so these are the correct answers.

According to the statement

We have given that the

AB = 8 and B lies at −7, and we have to find the position of the A on the number line.

Let a be a point on number line and b be the second point on number line.

And The distance between two numbers on number line is calculate by subtracting the smaller number from larger number.

Here

AB = 8

B = -7

We have to look at the options one by one.

For A = -1

As A>B

AB = -1-(7) = -1+7 = 6

For A = 1

As A>B so

AB = 1-(-7) = 8

So with A = 1 , AB = 8

This is one of the right answers.

For A=15

As A>B

AB = 15-(-7) = 22

For A=-15

As B>A

AB = -7 -(-15) = 8

As with A=1 and A=-15, the distance between AB is 8 so these are the correct answers.

So, The value of A is A(1,-15) and the distance between AB is 8 so these are the correct answers.
