Remember the centre of the number line is zero(0)

Number to the right of zero are positive(+)

Numbers to the left of zero are negative(-)

When moving along the number from left to right, then it is Addition.

When moving along the number line from right to left then it is Subtraction.

Here is the numbers line

-infinity .... -10, -9 , -8 , -7, -6, -5, -4, -3, -2, -1, 0 ,1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, ... +inifinity.

So we want to make the addition.

-6 + 10 . So start at '-4' count 10 places to the right(addition), you will land on (+)4.

Making the subtraction.

6 - 10 . So start at (+)6, count 10 places to the left(subtraction) , you will land on '-4'.

Hope that helps!!!!

Is it true that if two points are labeled on a number line then the length between them can be measured?

In principle, yes. The length is the value of the higher label minus the value of the lower label.

What is the minimum number of points needed to identify a line?

Two. Two points determine a line. Three points determine a plane.


Is there an empty set or point between any two points on a number line?

There are an infinite number of points between any two numbers on the real number line.


What is the fewest number of points that determines a line?

Only two points.


How many points are needed to draw a line?

A line contains an infinite number of points but it takes only two points to determine a line.


What is the minimum number of points any line contains?

In Euclidean geometry each line contains a minimum of an infinite number of points. In projective geometry, though, a line may have as few as two points.


What is the distance on a number line?

If you have two points on a number line, the formula for distance is:|a-b| (|=absolute value)


At what number of people is it considered a line?

well, if a line is considered to conect two points, then two people is the minimum line.


The---------------between any two points on a number line is the absolute of the difference of the coordinates?

The distance between any two points on a number line is the absolute value of the difference of the coordinates.


How many points are contained in a line?

A point has no size, and a line is of infinite length, so it contains an infinite number of points. It takes only two points to describe or identify a line, but number of points it contains is infinte. Actually, even a line segment has an infinite number, since it is not possible to get two points so close together that another point won't fit between them.


What line has two points in it?

Any piece of a line has an infinite number of points on it, whether it's straight or curved. A line segment is a section of a line bounded by two endpoints. A line is continuous, but a line segment, is a segment of a line.
