Question

Match the correct data inferred from the number lines.

• A. A = B
• B. A < B
• C. A > B

Answer 1

If a point X lies to the left of point Y on a number line, then X < Y.
$\therefore$ In the first number line, A < B.

If two points X and Y lie on the same point on a number line, then X = Y.
$\therefore$ In the second number line, A = B.

If a point X lies to the right of point Y on a number line, then X > Y.
$\therefore$ In the third number line, A > B.
