Question

Carolyn says that point A and point B represent opposite integers. a. What is the opposite of the integer represent by point A? By point B? b. Do you agree with Carolyn? Explain

Answer 1

we are given

point-A= -7

point-B=8

(a)

opposite of point-A is negative of point-A value

so,

opposite of point-A is -(-7)

opposite of point-A is 7

opposite of point-B is negative of point-B value

so,

opposite of point-B is -8

opposite of point-B is -8

(b)

we can see that

opposite of point-A is 7

opposite of point-B is -8

they are not equal

so, this argument is FALSE.......Answer
