(01.02 MC)Which of the following expressions shows how to rewrite 4 − 5 using the additive inverse and displays the expression c
orrectly on a number line? 1.The expression 4 plus negative 5 is written on top. A number line from negative 10 to positive 10 is shown, with numbers labeled at intervals of 1. An arrow is shown from point 0 to 4. Another arrow points from 4 to negative 1.
2.The expression 4 plus negative 5 is written on top. A number line from negative 10 to positive 10 is shown, with numbers labeled at intervals of 1. An arrow is shown from point 0 to 4. Another arrow points from 4 to 5.
3.The expression 4 minus negative 5 is written on top. A number line from negative 10 to positive 10 is shown, with numbers labeled at intervals of 1. An arrow is shown from point 0 to 4. Another arrow points from 4 to negative 5.
4.The expression 4 minus negative 5 is written on top. A number line from negative 10 to positive 10 is shown, with numbers labeled at intervals of 1. An arrow is shown from point 0 to 4. Another arrow points from 4 to 1.
I think the answer is 1. The expression 4 plus negative 5 is written on top. A number line from negative 10 to positive 10 is shown, with numbers labeled at intervals of 1. An arrow is shown from point 0 to 4. Another arrow points from 4 to negative. So the answer is A
Step 2 is not correct. It should be abs(25 - - 26) = abs(25 + 26) = 51
Given that Step 2 is accepted (as - 1) then three is OK and and so is 4. But technically they are incorrect as well. I think you are likely to say that step 2 is the problem.
