10. Plot a point that is the same distance from 0 as point F but in a different location. Label the point G.
11. When describing the location of point F, Tara says that point F is located 4 units from 0. Explain why Tara's statement is not precise.
12. For each pair of numbers in parts (a)–(d), choose the number that is closer to 0. Explain.
4 and 10
13. 4 and -1
14. 4 and -4
15. -4 and -10

Answer

10. Point F is at -4, so point G should be at 4, which is the same distance from 0 but in the opposite direction.

11. Tara's statement is not precise because saying a point is 4 units from 0 could mean either 4 or -4. She should specify the direction (positive or negative) to be precise.

  1. 12. 4 is closer to 0 than 10 because 4 is 4 units away from 0, while 10 is 10 units away.
  2. 13. -1 is closer to 0 than 4 because -1 is 1 unit away from 0, while 4 is 4 units away.
  3. 14. 4 and -4 are equidistant from 0, both being 4 units away.
  4. 15. -4 is closer to 0 than -10 because -4 is 4 units away from 0, while -10 is 10 units away.
