Suppose f is a negative fraction. Then |f| is the absolute value of the fraction - the value disregarding the sign. The number is graphed at a distance of |f| to the left of the origin, the zero point.

How do you differentiate between fractions and integers?

Integers are positive and/or negative numbers. Fractions are not integers because they are not originally positive or negative. However, they can both be put on a number line and be considered an integer. Fractions aren't integers unless put on a number line. Integers don't have to be on a number line to be considered an integer.

We assume you are graphing on a number line, not an x-y plane. Draw an "open" circle (not filled in) at -4, and a line from it across to the right end of the number line. Put an arrow on the end of the line to show that the graph continues to the right.
