Answer 1

To find the numbers that are 17 units away from the integer 46 on the number line, you must add(move right) and subtract(move left) 17 and 46.

- Subtract 17 from 46.
46 - 17 (or move 17 units to the left of 46)
29 Is the number 17 units to the left of 46.

- Add 17 to 46.
46 + 17 (or move 17 units to the right of 46)
63 Is the number 17 units to the right of 46.

Answer: A. 29 and 63
