Plot the set on the number line.
STEP 1
Assumptions
1. We have a set of numbers .
2. We need to plot these numbers on a number line.
3. The number line is a horizontal line with marks at regular intervals to represent integers and fractions or decimals in between.
STEP 2
Draw a horizontal line to represent the number line.
STEP 3
Mark the points on the number line where the integers are located. Ensure that the distance between each integer is equal.
STEP 4
Identify the location of each number in the set on the number line. For example, -3.5 is between -4 and -3, closer to -3.
STEP 5
Mark the point -3.5 on the number line slightly to the left of the -3 mark because -3.5 is half a unit less than -3.
STEP 6
Mark the point -2.5 on the number line slightly to the left of the -2 mark because -2.5 is half a unit less than -2.
STEP 7
Mark the point -2.0 directly under the -2 mark on the number line because -2.0 is an integer.
STEP 8
Mark the point 1.5 on the number line slightly to the right of the 1 mark because 1.5 is half a unit more than 1.
STEP 9
Label each point with its corresponding value from the set to avoid confusion.
The set has now been plotted on the number line.
