Question
Use the image to answer the question.
A number line ranging from negative five to five with arrows at both ends shows 0 labeled in the middle. Points upper A through upper D are plotted from left to right. Points upper A and upper B are located in between negative 2 and negative 1. Point upper A is approximately half-way between the first and second tick mark to the left of zero. Point upper B is just beyond the tick mark to the left of zero. Points upper C and upper D are in between positive 1 and positive 2. Point upper C is just beyond the first tick mark to the right of zero. Point D is closer to the second tick mark to the right of zero.
The number line has the following numbers: 134, −1.5, −1.1, 1.03. Put the numbers in the correct order, A–D.

Based on the image and the positions of the points on the number line, the correct order of the numbers is: −1.5, −1.1, 1.03, 134.
Therefore, the correct response is: −1.5, −1.1, 1.03, 134.
To answer this question, we need to compare the given numbers with the points on the number line.
Looking at the number line, we can see that points A and B are located between -2 and -1, while points C and D are located between 1 and 2.
Let's consider the given numbers:
1) 134: Looking at the number line, we can see that this number is far beyond any of the plotted points, both to the left and right. Therefore, we can eliminate this option.
2) -1.5: This number falls between points A and B on the number line, and it is farther to the left than -1.1. This matches the location of point A, which is approximately halfway between the first and second tick mark to the left of zero.
3) -1.1: This number also falls between points A and B on the number line, but it is closer to zero than -1.5. This matches the location of point B, which is just beyond the tick mark to the left of zero.
4) 1.03: This number falls between points C and D on the number line, and it is closer to the second tick mark to the right of zero. This matches the location of point D.
Based on the comparisons, we can conclude that the correct order of the numbers is:
-1.5, -1.1, 1.03, 134
So the correct response is:
−1.5, −1.1, 1.03, 134
