1. Two numbers have an absolute value of 16.. Which of the two numbers is greater than 12?
2.Jesse graphed a point to represent the absolutwe value of a number on a number line. If the original number is less than -10, describe all the possible values for the point Jesse graphed on the number line. Explain your thinking.
1. If two numbers have an absolute value of 16, one must be 16 and the other must be -16. So, clearly, 16 is the number greater than 12.
2. All the possible values for the point would be the positive numbers > 10. If the original point was < -10, all the absoulte values of such points would be > 10.
