Question

Among the following pairs, in which pair the first number is to the right of the second number on the number line?
i. $(3,7)$
ii. $(0,-4)$
iii. $(2,5)$
iv. $(-4,-8)$
v. $(1,-10)$
vi. $(-1,3)$

• A. $(0,-4),(3,7)and(1,-10)$
• B. $(3,7),(-4,-8)and(1,-10)$
• C. $(0,-4),(-4,-8)and(1,-10)$
• D. $(0,-4),(-4,-8)and(3,7)$

Answer 1

The correct option is C

$(0,-4),(-4,-8)and(1,-10)$

Consider the Number Line.

If a number is to the right of another number on the number line then it is always greater than the given number.

Given pairs are:
$(3,7),(0,-4),(2,5),(-4,-8),(1,-10)$ and $(-1,3)$.

Here, $3<7,0>(-4),2<5,(-4)>-8,1>(-10)$ and $-1<3$.

Hence, the required pairs are $(0,-4),(-4,-8)$ and $(1,-10)$.
