Its absolute value.
10 units.
Magnitude or absolute value of the number.
the number that is halfway between -4 and 0 is -2
0.7 is located on the number line between 0 and 1.
The absolute value of a number is the distance the number is away from 0. For example, on the number line 2 is 2 units from 0 So |2|=2. But, -2 is also 2units away from 0 on the number line, so |-2|=2 as well. In general for any real number x , |x| is the distance from x to 0 on the number line. That helps us see why if x is a negative number, the distance from zero must still be positive. So for x<0, |x| is -x. For example, if x is -2, the absolute value is -(-2) which is positive 2. In general is a and b are real numbers |a-b|=|b-a| and both are the distance between a and b. Now let a =0 and we have |-b|=|b|
The number line is scalable, meaning it can be any distance you want.
... equal to the number.
