Maggie and her friends played an online trivia game. Their scores at the end of the game were −1, 3, 0, −2, 1, −3, and 4 points.
a. List the scores in order from greatest to least.
b. Write an inequality to show the relationship between the largest and the smallest value.
c. Write a statement that interprets the inequality you wrote as a statement about the relative position of those numbers on a number line.(2 points)
a. The scores in order from greatest to least are: 4, 3, 1, 0, -1, -2, -3.
b. The inequality to show the relationship between the largest and smallest value is: 4 > -3.
c. The inequality statement "4 is greater than -3" means that the number 4 is to the right of the number -3 on a number line.
a. The scores in order from greatest to least are 4, 3, 1, 0, -1, -2, -3.
b. The inequality to show the relationship between the largest and the smallest value is: 4 > -3.
c. The inequality "4 > -3" means that the value 4 is greater than -3. In terms of the relative position on a number line, this means that the point representing 4 is to the right of the point representing -3. In other words, 4 is further along the number line in the positive direction compared to -3.
