4. Adjacent figure is a vertical number A line, representing integers. Observe it and locate the following points:

(1) If point D is + 8, then which point is -8?
(2) Is point G a negative integer or a positive integer?
(3) Write integers for points 8 and E.
(4) Which point marked on this number line has the least value?
(5) Arrange all the points in decreasing order of value.

Adjacent figure is a vertical number line

Solution: (1) We have, point D is +8.

Therefore, 16 steps to the down from D is -8 i.e., the point F.

(2) Point G is a negative integer.

(3) Point B is four steps down from point D.

Value of point B = +8- 4 = +4

Point E is eighteen steps down from point D.

Value of point E = +8- 18 = -10

(4) Since, point E is located in the bottom.

So, point E has the least value.

(5) Decreasing order of all the points is,

D, C,B, A,0, H,G, F,E

(4) If we are at- 6 on the number line, in which direction should we move to reach – 1 ?

Solution: (1)

we will reach 2 if we move 4 numbers to the right of -2

Thus, we will reach 2 if we move 4 numbers to the right of -2.

(2)

 

Thus, we will reach -4 if we move 5 numbers to the left of 1

Thus, we will reach -4 if we move 5 numbers to the left of 1.

(3)

Thus, we will reach -4 if we move 5 numbers to the left of 1 Thus, we should move 5 numbers to the left of-8 to reach -13

71. Using number line, how do you compare

(1) two negative integers?
(2) two positive integers?
(3) one positive and one negative integer?

Solution: Since, the integer lying on right is greater than the integer lying on left.

In all of the given cases (1), (2) and (3), we can compare by using the number line by observing which one of the given integers lie
on tine right or left.

72. Observe the following : 1 +2-3+4+5-6-7+8-9=-5 Change one’-‘sign as’+’sign to get the sum 9.

Solution: On observing the given expression, l + 2- 3 + 4 +5-6- 7 +8- 9 = -5, we noticed that (-7) should be replaced by (+7) to get a result of 9.

Thus, 1+2-3+4+5-6+7+8-9
= (l+2 + 4 + 5 + 7 + 8)-(3 + 6 + 9)
= 27-18 = 9

(1) -5
(2) 11
(3) 0?

Solution: (1) If we are at 8 on the number line, then to reach the integer -5, we must move towards the left on the number line.

(2) If we are at 8 on the number line, then to reach the integer 11, we must move towards the right on the number line.

(3) If we are at 8 on the number line, then to reach the integer 0, we must move towards the left on the number line.

81. Using the number line, write the integer which is

(1) 4 more than -5
(2) 3 less than 2
(3) 2 less than -2

Solution: (1) We want to know an integer 4 more than -5.

So, we start from -5 and proceed 4 steps to the right, then we obtain -1 as shown below.

We want to know an integer 4 more than -5

Hence, 4 more than -5 is -1.

(2) We want to know an integer 3 less than 2.

So, we start from 2 and proceed 3 steps to the left, then we obtain -1 as shown below.

So, we start from 2 and proceed 3 steps to the left, then we obtain -1 as shown below

Hence, 3 less than 2 is -1.

(3) We want to know an integer 2 less than-2.

So, we start from -2 and proceed 2 steps to the left, then we obtain -4 as shown below.

So, we start from -2 and proceed 2 steps to the left, then we obtain -4 as shown below
