Answer:
see attached
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Kyle's balance is -$2.25
Jason's balance is -$2.00
Sue's balance is: $2.25
Required:
A: plot and label the points on a number line from -4 to +4
describe how you did it
B: determine who owes more
Solution:
Part A: For the attached plot, we used the Desmos graphing calculator utility, giving it the points (-2.25, 0), (-2.00, 0), and (2.25, 0) to plot on x-y coordinates. The y-axis and minor grid lines are suppressed in order to better approximate a number line. The "label" facility is utilized to attach labels to the points.
Part B: Balances are owed to the bank when the balance is negative. The more negative it is, the more is owed. Kyle's point is farthest to the left on the number line (and is left of 0), so Kyle owes more. The ordering is ...
-2.25 < -2.00 < 0
where |-2.25| > |-2.00|. The number -2.25 is Kyle's balance, so he owes more.
