-12 and 12
They are -2 and 12.
Integers on the number line are the whole numbers.
Two integers that are opposites are -3 and 3. Opposite integers are numbers that are the same distance from zero on the number line but in opposite directions. In this case, -3 is three units to the left of zero, while 3 is three units to the right.
12, -12
If you have drawn a number line counting in whole numbers, the integers are those whole number points. Any decimal numbers in between are not integers.
To find the distance between two integers using the difference, you simply subtract the smaller integer from the larger integer. The result will be the distance between the two integers on the number line. For example, if you have integers 7 and 3, you would subtract 3 from 7 to get a distance of 4. This method works because the difference between two integers gives you the number of units separating them on the number line.
There are two numbers that are 10 units from zero on the number line: 10 and -10. These two points are equidistant from zero, each being exactly 10 units away.
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.
There are no negative integers between positive ones on the number line.
10 To find the units from any two integers on the number line, subtract one number from the other, and the absolute value of that number is the answer. In this case, you would write -5 - 5 = -10 or 5 - -5 = 10. The absolute value of both answers is 10.
