Answer: 


 

3. Construct a number line that shows the depth of 10 feet from the ground level and its opposite.


The depth of 10 feet from the ground level 

The opposite of the depth of 10 feet

 

4. Identify the integers and mark on the number line that are at a distance of 8 units from −6.

Answer: 

At a distance of 8 units from − 6



 

5. Answer the following questions from the number line given below .


i) Which integer is greater : G or K ? Why ?

G is left of K. So integer K is greater.

ii) Find the integer that represents C.

−4 

iii) How many integers are there between G and H?

6 that is (−2, −1, 0, 1, 2, 3)

iv) Find the pairs of letters which are opposite of a number.

2 pairs they are (C, H) (E, J)

v) Say True or False : 6 units to the left of D is −6.

False. 6 units to the left of D is 0

 

6. If G is 3 and C is −1, what numbers are A and K on the number line?


−3, 7

 

7. Find the integers that are 4 units to the left 0 and 2 units to the right of −3.

4 units to the left 0 is −4

2 units to the right of −3 is −1

 

Challenge Problems

 

8. Is there the smallest and the largest number in the set of integers? Give reason.

No, as the number line number extends on both sides without any end, we cannot find the smallest (−) and the largest (+) number.

 

9. Look at the Celsius Thermometer and answer the following questions:


i) What is the temperature that is shown in the Thermometer?

−10°C

ii) Where will you mark the temperature 5° C below 0° C in the Thermometer?

At − 5°C

iii) What will be the temperature, if 10° C is reduced from the temperature shown in the Thermometer?

 − 20°C

iv) Mark the opposite of 15° C in the Thermometer.

−15°C

 

10. P, Q, R and S are four different integers on a number line. From the following clues, find these integers and write them in ascending order.

i) S is the least of the given integers.

ii) R is the smallest positive integer.

iii) The integers P and S are at the same distance from 0.

iv) Q is 2 units to the left of integer R.

The ascending order is S < Q < O < R < P.
