Solution
The correct option is A -8 In a vertical number line, the numbers above 0 are positive and the numbers below zero are negative.
Given, point D = +8. We can conclude that each division is 1 unit.
Point B is also 8 units away from '0' and below zero.
Hence the number represented by the point B is -8.
