Responses
The sum p+(−q) is the number located a distance |q| from p in the positive direction.
The sum p plus left parenthesis negative q right parenthesis is the number located a distance Start Absolute Value q End Absolute Value from p in the positive direction.
The sum p+(−q) is the number located a distance |p| from q in the positive direction.
The sum negative p plus left parenthesis negative q right parenthesis is the number located a distance absolute value of p from q in the positive direction.
The sum p+(−q) is the number located a distance |p| from q in the negative direction.
The sum p plus left parenthesis negative q right parenthesis is the number located a distance Start Absolute Value p End Absolute Value from q in the negative direction.
The sum p+(−q) is the number located a distance |q| from p in the negative direction.
The sum p + (-q) is the number located a distance |q| from p in the positive direction.
Which number line shows the correct way to find the sum p+q if p is positive and q is negative?(1 point)
Responses
A number line is shown with arrows at both ends, and hashmarks at unit intervals. The second point from the left is labeled p. Zero is marked at 6 intervals to the right of point p. A rightward curved arrow, labeled absolute value of q, starts at p and ends 4 intervals to the right of p.
