Which number line plots the integers negative 8 , negative 4 , and 11 ?
Answer
A
Image with description A vertical number line from negative 12 to 12 by 3s with every other tick mark labeled. There is a point between the second and the third tick marks below zero. There is a point between the first and the second tick marks below zero. There is a point between the third and the fourth tick marks above 0.
B
Image with description A vertical number line from negative 12 to 12 by 3s with every other tick mark labeled. There is a point between the second and the first tick marks below zero. There is a point between the first tick mark below zero and 0. There is a point between the third and the fourth tick marks above 0.
C
Image with description A vertical number line from negative 12 to 12 by 3s with every other tick mark labeled. There is a point between the second and the first tick marks below zero. There is a point between the first tick mark below zero and 0. There is a point between the third and the fourth tick marks above 0.
D
Image with description A vertical number line from negative 12 to 12 by 3s with every other tick mark labeled. There is a point between the second and the first tick marks below zero. There is a point between the first tick mark below zero and 0. There is a point after the fourth tick mark above 0.
Explanation
The integers −8 and −4 lie between the tick marks −9 and −6, and −6 and −3, respectively. The integer 11 lies between 9 and 12, so the plot with points in those three intervals is choice A.
