Which inequality statement describes the two numbers on a number line? "6 and a number 10 units to the left of 6" A) 10 > 6 B) 10 < 6 C) −4 > 6 D) −4 < 6

Respuesta :

Option D

- 4 < 6   inequality statement describes the two numbers on a number line

Solution:

Given, statement is "6 and a number 10 units to the left of 6"  

We have to find which inequality statement describes the two numbers on a number line?

Now, we know that, as we move towards left on the number line, the value goes decreasing by 1 for every one unit.

So, a number 10 units to the left of 6 will be 6 – 10 = - 4  

So, the two numbers are 6, -4 and we know that, - 4 < 6

Hence, option D is correct.
