Q. Point N is located at −9 . Points O and P are each 7 units away from Point N. Where are O and P located?O=□P=□
Given Data: Given that Point N is located at −9 on a number line, and Points O and P are each 7 units away from Point N, we need to find two points that are 7 units away from −9. One will be to the left (a negative direction) and one will be to the right (a positive direction) on the number line.
Find Point O: To find Point O, which is 7 units to the left of Point N, we subtract 7 from the position of Point N.Calculation: −9−7=−16Point O is located at −16.
Find Point P: To find Point P, which is 7 units to the right of Point N, we add 7 to the position of Point N.Calculation: −9+7=−2Point P is located at −2.
