Question
Use the image to answer the question.
A horizontal axis is shown ranging from negative 20 to 20 in increments of one. Negative 20 is marked with a point labeled A, negative 10 is marked with a point labeled B, 0 is marked with a point labeled C, and 10 marked with a point labeled D.
A vertical number line has a point that is 10 units below 0. Which point on the horizontal number line represents the same number?
(1 point)

HOLAAAAAAAAAA, P-A
Since the vertical number line has a point that is 10 units below 0, we need to find the point on the horizontal number line that represents the same number.
Looking at the points given on the horizontal number line, we can see that point B is marked as negative 10, point C is marked as 0, and point D is marked as 10.
Since the vertical number line is 10 units below 0, the corresponding point on the horizontal number line would also be 10 units to the left of 0.
Therefore, the point on the horizontal number line that represents the same number is Point B.
To determine which point on the horizontal number line represents the same number as a point that is 10 units below 0 on the vertical number line, we need to identify the point that corresponds to a vertical position of -10.
In the given description, it is mentioned that the vertical number line has a point that is 10 units below 0, which means it is at a negative value on the vertical number line.
Looking at the horizontal number line, we can see that the point labeled D corresponds to the value of 10. Since the given point on the vertical number line is a negative value, it does not correspond to point D.
Moving to the left side of the horizontal number line, we can see that the point labeled A corresponds to the value of -20. Since the given point on the vertical number line is 10 units below 0, it lies in the negative region and matches the value corresponding to point A. Therefore, the correct answer is Point A.
