a. –14
b. –2
c. 1
d. 2

Answer 1

Point v is graphed on a number line at -6...point u is 8 units away from v....notice that it doesn't say which way....so it can go either way....so we need to find 8 units away from -6 in both directions

-6 + 8 = 2
-6 - 8 = -14

so point u can be either at 2 or at -14...ur answers are A and D
