Q. Point G is located at −10 . Points H and I are each 8 units away from Point G. Where are H and I located?H=□I=□
Identify Initial Position: Identify the initial position of Point G. Point G is located at −10 on a number line.
Determine Possible Positions: Determine the possible positions of Points H and I. Since Points H and I are each 8 units away from Point G, they can be either 8 units to the left or 8 units to the right of Point G.
Calculate Position of H: Calculate the position of Point H.If Point H is 8 units to the right of Point G, we add 8 to the position of Point G.H=−10+8=−2
Calculate Position of I: Calculate the position of Point I.If Point I is 8 units to the left of Point G, we subtract 8 from the position of Point G.I=−10−8=−18
