iii) How many integers are there between G and H?
iv) Find the pairs of letters which are opposite of a number.
v) Say True or False: 6 units to the left of D is −6.

Answer 1

i) K is greater. K represents −1 and G represents −3.

Because it is to the right of G in the negative side of the number line.

ii) C represents −4

iii) G represents −3 and H represents 4.

∴ −2, −1, 0, 1, 2, 3 are the 6 numbers between G and H.

iv) (C, H) and (E, J) are opposite pairs.

v) 6 units to the left of D is −6 - False

Because D represents +6 on the number line
